homepod won't play playlists

Its the oddest thing. New homepod simply cannot recognize any playlist names. I can "hey siri play Havana" it it plays fine, but "hey siri play playlist dance" "Cannot find playlist Dance in your music."

Works fine without homepod just on the iPhone X.

Tried changing the playlist names and same results

Tried "hey siri, playlists" replies "which playlist?" say a playlist and " i cannot find playlist X in your music"

Apple support esclated to tier 3 and they dont know either,

Anyone else? My brother is not having this issue.

I was asking djb_in_SD since they talk about not having a subscription (at least not one to Apple Music).

Not that it should make any difference, but do you have iCloud Music library enabled on the device that you set up the HomePod with?

Have gone through this thread > ensured all settings are correct on MBP, iP, iMac > reset HmPd. Still doesn't work to play playlist that I create on one of the above mentioned devices. ARGH!
