error on upload on app store

I get this error with xcode 16.1 uploading to app store:

Asset validation failed Invalid Info.plist key. The key 'UIBackgroundModes' in bundle new3bmeteo.app/Watch/new3bmeteowatch.app/PlugIns/new3bmeteowatch Extension.appex is invalid. (ID: a1e48ae9-5b51-4252-99e7-116b6359cb39)

Hello, thank you for these reports.

We believe we have resolved this issue. If you continue to experience issues submitting your apps, please contact us.

I'm getting the same error, I've never had this issue in the past.

Have you found a way to fix it and upload successfully?

I'm getting the same issue, but with the "audio" capability used for UIBackgroundModes. Was submitting a build for review that was previously submitted to and tested with TestFlight perfectly fine. Now I can't even submit new builds to TestFlight without getting this error.

We are also getting this on our watch app that has previously been validated and approved numerous times with no changes

Also getting this same error on Xcode 16.1 for watch app extension Info.plist
