Windows 10: Groove Music Bug -Icon Not Showing On the Taskbar-

This is a strange one. I've come across this fairly recently. I don't know what causes this, but this happens quite often.

I run a search to find a song on a specified location. When I double-click to play it, Groove starts playing the song but the Groove icon does not show on the taskbar. When I first realized this, it was like Paranormal Activity Windows Edition; I can hear the music but can't see where it is coming from.

Has anyone else experinced this? It can be frustrating at times.
