Since the latest Apple TV update when starting to play an album or song from Apple Music the song refuses to play without pressing stop then starting again. This happens 80% of the time. Very frustrating. The song will eventually play just not when first hitting play. Anyone else having this issue? This has only started after the latest update. Never an issue before. Tried restarting the Apple TV as well as unplugging for a bit then restarting.
 
Post modified - my problems are with iTunes on a Mac. My ATV with the latest software seems to work fine once Music loads - but this can take a while.
 
Well it seems this issue isn’t happening for me today. It happened last weekend at night and last night. Wondering if this is some sort of buffering issue with overloaded servers?
 
I was getting that, I still am to an extent. For me its lag. The other day I press play and walked away, it didn't play but I was busy. 2-3 minuets later it started playing. Today its like 3 seconds, which I can live with since it needs to buffer a bit of the music.

I got it again Saturday night. I never wait that long but I'm sure it would probably start playing eventually. I do see the spinning wheel at the song title. This is frustrating as it doesn't happen all the time and never used to happen before the update.
