Any way to pause rather than mute audio?

On Apple CarPlay, if you're listening to music or a podcast using any app, if you press the left steering wheel "wheel", it will mute the audio not actually pause it. I know of no other car that mutes rather than pauses, and trying to reach over (and sometimes get to the right screen) to hit the mute button on the CarPlay app is not ideal. Anyone find a way to get that (or the custom button) to pause the audio instead? Kind of an obvious oversight by Porsche.

Easy. If you're listening to audio on CarPlay, you can say "Siri pause" and it will pause the audio. Alternatively, long press the mic button and say "pause".
