I can come up with a dozen different stories about how music arose and evolved, and how it answers a spiritual need.
But I can't come up with any explanation for how music filled an evolutionary niche and helped the human species survive. But there are many other things for which there is no evolutionary explanation. How, for example, did the smile evolve before the muscles that could make us smile? And without the smile, why would the muscles develop there? This is an unanswered question for me, and as such doesn't prove something about the supposed evolution of the smile.
