Recently Played Playlist not updating

Since installing 17.1.1 2 days ago my Recently Played playlist is no longer updating from the Cloud. I have tried re-starting both my phone and computer and turning on/off Apple Music sync a number of times and logging in/out of my account and nothing seems to refresh the Recently Played playlist.

iOS 17.1, 17.1.1 not updating played tracks I've tried this with iOS 17.1, iOS 17.1.1, iPadOS 17.1, and iPadOS 17.1.1. When I play a song that's in "your library" (as opposed to Apple Music) on this device, it will appear in the "Recently Played" local playlist. Unfortunately, the fact that it was played locally does not get updated, so my other devices never see their "Recently Played" playlists update with this information. Seems like there's an issue that initiated in 17.1 that makes updating play counts not sync across devices. (I can play songs from my library via tvOS 17.1 and recent played playlists are updated.) I've tried restarting devices, signing in and signing out of Apple Music and iCloud, but nothing helps. Maybe someone here can tell me what I'm missing or doing wrong, or might be able to do to resolve this?

Plays not updating Recently, when using my Apple Music app, the number of times a song has played is not updating. Typically, I can see a running count of the number of times a song has played on my desktop iTunes app. Sometimes I've noticed songs take up to 24 hours to update. I have "Use Listening History" selected on my iPhone SE and have never changed this setting. I also have this setting set on my iTunes as well and I have never changed it. When playing songs from my desktop, the iTunes app automatically updates the "Plays" in real time. I have restarted, signed in/signed out, shut my iPhone down, etc., etc. There must be something I'm missing, something simple. Anyone know how to get the plays from my iPhone to return to counting the plays?

Apple Music slow on iOS 16.4.1 / iPhone 14 Pro After this latest update, there is a delay when shuffling or playing custom playlists. The app says, "Loading..." over WiFi and Cellular for several seconds. This didn't happen before the update. The playlist plays instantly on my Macbook Pro. I tried logging in and out of iCloud but that did nothing.
