Why is Siri unable to play Playlists on iOS 17.5?

Since upgrading to iOS 17.5 a couple of days ago, Siri can no longer play my playlists. I get a reply that says "Looks like Apple Music can't play that.”


This is music and playlists that are in my library that were synced through iTunes from my PC.


I also have an Apple Music subscription but this was not a problem before the 17.5 update.


I deleted all the music from my iPhone and removed the Music app. Then re-synced everything from iTunes. That didn't solve anything. I can't find very many posts on Apple communities or Reddit. I can't possibly be the only one experiencing this.


Anyone else going through this? Any solutions or suggestions? It's most annoying in the car because I can't ask Siri to launch a playlist anymore.

I’m having the same exact problem. I love listening to my playlists in the car, and have resorted to manually starting the playlist before driving. It’s very annoying.
