Default v40 (64 plate) DAB only works with engine off

Hi new here so apologies if this is the wrong section, my partner's 64 plate V40, which we've had since summer 2020, this morning has started behaving weird in terms of the radio.

The DAB radio will only play when the engine is off, either turned off or the stop/start is active. Once the engine turns back on, it makes a static noise then says no signal, but the other types of radio work fine.

I have done a quick search online and can't see any obvious results, has anyone else had any experience with this or are we looking at hoping a dealership will have some idea?

The DAB antenna will be faulty in the Fin on the roof , It will need a new circuit board and sticky seal It was sensitive to static on the early models .

Do you have anything plugged into any of the plug sockets?
