If by, "this issue", you mean the audio playback widget appearing on the Lock Screen, and indicating that it's in Play mode, but not actually playing anything, and not responding to taps to Pause, then: yes, I've had this since iOS 7 with at least two apps, though it usually (always?) has the name of the app above it.
exactly that, except i don't even get the name of the app it's supposedly playing from
