My Apple music playlist not syncing on IOS devices after updating.  On Sonos, I can go into Music Library/songs and see that the new songs are there, but they are not in the playlist. In other words, in my Apple music, I have added Song A into Playlist X. When I update my Sonos, I can see Song A, but it is not in Playlist X.

macOS Catalina v10.15.7

iPad Air 12.4.9

Sonos update is current.

Please help!
