airplay2 and homekit reqire an icloud account

Airplay2 and homekit require an icloud account. I sign in, but it doesn't acknowledge the sign in. I know its the correct password, because it will tell me if it isn't. It never shows a bad password, it just doesn't show me logged in so when I go to show which room it is in, it says airplay2 and homekit reqire an icloud account.

What is the next thing to do to try to get loggin into my icloud account. Everything else shows it is attached to my icloud account.

Apple TV 4K

Hello grmcrckr,

Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with HomeKit and your iCloud account.

Please verify you set up one of your compatible devices as the home hub: Set up your HomePod, HomePod mini, Apple TV, or iPad as a home hub - Apple Support

If you need more help, check the info at the bottom of the article: "If your home hub isn't working as expected

Check that your HomePod, HomePod mini, Apple TV 4K or Apple TV HD, or iPad is up to date.
Make sure that the user signed in to iCloud is the primary Home app user, and not an invited user.
Turn on iCloud Keychain and two-factor authentication for your Apple ID.
Check that the device that you set up as a home hub is in your home, connected to your home Wi-Fi network, and powered on."

Thanks and have a wonderful day.
