On my pixel 6, I don't know what update changed this, but you have to tap the music symbol on the lock screen to get it to ID a song. I want it to listen all the time like it used to so I can no-hassle scrobble vinyl to last.fm. Any ideas?

It used to identify all the time though, without touching the music symbol. My last.fm used to show what I listen to at the grocery store or dentist's office for example ha

The song list gets updated from time to time. That's the only thing that I'm aware has changed. I think you might have just gotten lucky with songs being included in the list before and now, possibly after an update to the list, are less lucky.

But if I tap the lock screen icon it can ID anything including obscure black metal haha

Yes, because that's using Google's servers to identify the music. It's not offline anymore which is why it's not doing it by default.
