when I select a playlist, e.g. Yacht Rock, the app simply rolls through the various artists without stopping on any one artist rendering the playlist unplayable. Has anyone else had this experience? Did you find a solution?

What kind of playlist? Sonos, Imported, or Music Service? If the latter, which music service?

In my sonos app, then to recently played: the two “recently played” playlists from amazon are the culprits.

Ah, the infamous “Recently Played” list. Before the v80 app released, this was one of the most fragile areas of the code: if the original item wasn’t started in exactly the right way, it would not work when played again from the Recent list.

Do you recall how exactly you played them originally?

No, it’s been too long. Thanks for your help. I will reach out to amazon.

If the Playlist works when played directly from the Amazon service in the Sonos app, this is a Sonos issue as they are responsible for how Recently Played works.
