Voice Command "Play some music" no longer personalized

[rbkerhoven]

Got a couple mini's and a display connected with a premium account.
I used to say "play some music" or "play some tunes".
This would always play music that is added to my library, now it plays a radio station that's called music that contains horrible music I would never listen to.

According to the feature page on https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7030379?hl=en
It should "Play personalized suggested content from chosen service" when using that voice command.

This has changed since those radio stations were created, I think.
Can this be solved? Can I use a different command?

I don't have playlists, since I just randomise My library every time I listen to music.

I have an almost identical issue with a Google Home speaker. The minor difference is that rather than playing a radio station when I ask it to "Play some music", it tries to play an album called "My Music"

After more than an hour on a chat with "support" and numerous attempts to troubleshoot (poorly), I was finally told that  the command "Play some music" is no longer supported. It's ridiculous. What a waste of time.

The only small bit of saving grace is the tidbit that the command "play random music" will apparently, from what I've seen so far, have the same behavior as our dearly departed "play some music" used to.

Apparently the command "play some music" is not deprecated after all. I deleted the album called My Music and tried again. It didn't work right away, but after waiting a few hours, it now works again.

Thnx for the reply but you did not read my initial message. It not playing an album. It's playing a radio station. I don't have playlists, albums or any kind of grouping. Just my library. Jes146 was given an album she maintains/follows since she was able to delete it. I don't.

They fixed it. Dit not make a change just tried it again. Works like before. Probably updated it. Topic can be closed
