Are you playing an AirPlay v2 audio source? Only there’s no guarantee if you are playing an AirPlay v1 source as mentioned in the Sonos support link here:

Hey Ken, I only play from an iPhone 14 pro with iOS 18, so I believe hardware and software allow Airplay 2.

Well it can depend on the App you use. It might even be the case that your iDevice, or speaker, is faulty too, I guess - Have you tried different Apps?
The Wife & I currently have two Roam 2 speakers and before that we were using two original Roams and can’t say that we have (ever) seen the issue you mention. We mostly use Amazon & Apple Music when using AirPlay/Bluetooth or ‘Direct Control’ FWIW. Otherwise we may use the Sonos App.
I would actually also try a different source device if you’re able to test that.
If the problems persist after exploring the things mentioned, then it maybe best to reproduce the issue(s) seen and immediately submit a Sonos system diagnostic report from within the Sonos App, note it’s reference and contact/chat with Sonos Support Staff via this LINK and see what the Staff can perhaps suggest to help you to resolve the matter.

This may not be the case for your situation, but here’s mine:
I have my computer sending audio via 3.5mm to a Five and with it I group my Roam 2. Today I noticed some very short duration but very annoying stutters on the Roam 2 every 10-15 seconds. The speaker was connected to my 2.4GHz network since my Beam 2 is connected to 2.4GHz because (as I understood, their soundbars create their own 5GHZ network to connect to the surrounds and sub(s)).
At someone’s suggestion I changed the network of the Roam 2 to 5GHz and changed the SonosNet channel to 11 (1-10 are really crowded where I live). - Sonos Android/iPhone app, Settings, Network, Manage Networks, Update Networks, then I followed the wizard steps for the Roam 2.
I don’t know how much the channel changing step helped, but overall the stutters are gone.
Hope this helps.
