Unfortunately Apple support wasn't able to help me, but I did get it working. I had the same issue as described above. Mine started after I got back from a trip outside my country (similar to what the author of the original post linked above conveyed). I tried toggling all the relevant settings under "music" including the library sync toggle followed by force reset as indicated in the prior thread. Nothing worked. I spent an hour with apple support and they walked me through the same steps again, but got nowhere with them. I tried logging out of icloud altogether and logging back in. Nothing. I finally just backed up to icloud, wiped my device and started over from the backup. that worked :) It works perfectly now and recently played is updating as expected. Pretty annoying, but most of the restore process runs in the background, so as long as you don't need your phone for a few hours, it's not too bad. but still. ugh.
