Can’t run shortcuts on apple tv

Hi, I am trying to set up “I am going to sleep” shortcut to turn off the tv - Sleep Apple TV, however every time I run I get - sorry something went wrong, you can continue on controller. If I say siri, turn off the tv, it works. Also remote controller (my phone) works. This issue is only with shortcuts… I tried every other Apple TV command in shortcuts and I end up with same error.. I tried to reset Apple TV as well but still same error.. any idea ?

Did you tap “Apple TV” in the Sleep action to select your Apple TV? When you add the action, you get the generic “Apple TV” device. You need to select the actual device (mine is named “Living Room”.)
