My homepod will play pod casts; won't play my apple music library. What can I do?

I have a home pod and it is not responding to 'Hey Siri, play ______________________.' this is new. She says, '_______________is not in your apple music library' and it is in my library.

Home pod minis cutting end off songs when playing Apple Music using hey siri My home pod minis (I have two set up as a stereo pair) cut the end off songs and play a short blast of another song in between that and the next song. This happens primarily when I say ‘hey Siri play some music’. I’ve looked at fixes and people say to download your entire library again but when using hey Siri in this way the music isn’t downloaded. I’ve reset them both, removed and re-added them, restarted them and done any other ‘re’ I could think of. Any ideas?

HomePod won’t play radio stations When I ask Siri to play a named radio station it responds with ‘cannot find (name of radio station) in your Apple Music library’. Sometimes it does work and play the station but majority of the time it doesn’t. Everything is up to date. Very annoying, is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know of a resolution? Thank you.

Podcasts don't get added to your iCloud Music Library. HomePod should be able to play from a public accessible podcast series that can be correctly identified, usually something like "Hey Siri, play the latest episode of <podcast series>", but calling up specific episodes may be tricky.
