I create a custom playlist in iTunes on my Mac or iPad and have no trouble asking Siri to play it on my HomePod.
I can go immediately to the next track by saying "Hey Siri, skip" but commands like "Hey Siri, skip to the last track" or "Hey Siri, skip to the fifth track" don't work. Is there a keyword or a particular phrasing I'm not using?
Mac OS X (10.7.2)

About playing content on your HomePod
HomePod automatically uses the same Apple ID that you're signed into on the iOS device that you used to set it up. After you set it up, you don't need your device to be present to use Siri to play music or podcasts.
You can listen to these audio sources through your HomePod:
- Apple Music3
- iTunes music purchases
- iCloud Music Library with Apple Music3 or iTunes Match3
- Beats 1 live radio
- Beats 1 On Demand4
- Apple Podcasts
You can also AirPlay other content to HomePod from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple TV, and Mac5.
3 Subscriptions required for Apple Music and iTunes Match.
4 To listen to Beats 1 On Demand, you need an Apple Music subscription.
5 To use AirPlay, manually start AirPlay from another device or app instead of using "Hey Siri."
HomePod is not available in all countries and regions.
