Test has actually been done in 2025, just 2 or three months ago.
And yes, it took until the next day for the count to increase.

Background for the test was, that I am not using paid streaming services any more (and use ad-blocking apps) but wanted to see if the artists still get the views counted.

Although actually I am more interested if this is also true for YT-music (which is the main one I am using a lot without paying or watching ads).
One might assume it is the same as for the videos, but I don't know how to test it... So if anyone has an idea...?
