Echo Dot's Incessantly Stop Playing Music

I have 2 Echo Dots that incessantly stop playing music. Doesn't matter if it's my Pandora account, Amazon Music, or any other source. It'll play for a short period of time, and then I'll hear a "bong" sound and the music stops. I'll ask the Dot why it stopped playing, and it gives me a different answer each time, but with no resolution offered.

Once it starts this music stopping routine, it does it over, and over, to the point that I have to finally pull out my UE Boom. Extremely frustrating. Any clue? I absolutely know it's not an internet/connection issue, and the Dot's are updated. I've tried unplugging/resetting them I don't know how many times to no avail.

Dot Playing Music Through Show

I have a Dot and a Show about 10’ from each other. I set the Show with a different ”wake” name. They’re both in a group called kitchen.

Out of the blue, with no changes made on my part, when I now ask the Dot to play music, it says “playing through kitchen” and plays through both the Dot and Show. Looking at the settings, I don’t have them set up as a stereo pair, and they’re not connected through Bluetooth.

How do I “break” the connection between the two of them?
