If other channels are working on SiriusXM, then the issue isn’t on the Sonos side of things, but on the SiriusXM server that is feeding your Sonos. You may want to reach out to the SiriusXM CS group, rather than Sonos’ , who has no control over the SiriusXM content.
To my knowledge, all Sonos does is reach out to the SiriusXM server with instructions as to what you want to play, and then plays what SiriusXM sends back. Sonos wouldn’t be able to recognize one station versus any other station.
I’m relatively certain that SiriusXM uses a different server for Sonos than other streams, like their own app, or web presence.

I’ll watch this thread for updates.
Agreed, it’s not terribly surprising if SiriusXM, or an music service, customer support is not that well versed on how there service connects with Sonos. It probably represents a rather small amount of support calls they receive, and they can very easily run some tool to say the channel is operating as expected and just blame it on Sonos.
I’d expect that those SiriusXM CS folks don’t really think about the fact that Sonos connects to a different server, so when they check, they look at only their own server, which may be working fine, and not understand/comprehend there’s a slight difference due to the requesting device/app.
