Youtube android auto media controls not working

I just got a pixel 10 pro and I listen to podcasts through youtube in the car a lot. This was no problem with apple car play but now I can't get the media controls to come up in android auto. I saw in [this article](https://www.androidcentral.com/apps-software/youtube/youtube-now-supports-android-auto-playback-controls) that media controls were supposed to be added at the end of March but still nothing is coming up.

I double checked that my phone and all the necessary apps are up to date and I do have a youtube premium subscription. Any help would be appreciated.
