arXiv:2605.29300v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent Large Audio-Language Models (LALMs) have demonstrated promising abilities in understanding musical content. However, whether their responses are grounded in the correct temporal regions of the audio remains underexplored. This limitation is particularly critical for music understanding, where key information often occurs as temporally localized events, such as instrument entries and rhythmic transitions. To address this gap, we introduce MusTBENCH, a music-expert-validated benchmark designed to evaluate temporal grounding in LALMs throug
