HomePod HomePod Stuck on Shuffle since 14.1

[justin.d]

Hi all,

I've noticed that following the latest updates, whenever I ask HomePod to play an album, its songs are shuffled. This remains the case when I ask it to "turn off shuffle" or when I look at the upcoming songs on an iOS device:

For this album, the track list should be as follows:

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Same here. Tried a lot, but nothing seems to help. Found some threads in the official Apple communities dealing with this. So were not alone at least...

Thank you! I didn't think to look there. Hopefully we'll get a fix soon!

So glad I‘ve found this and its not just mine. Frustrating as hell.

Very annoying indeed...

i'm surprised it doesn't seem to have gained more traction, evidently not many people ask their homepods to play albums! i only recently started doing it, as i'm currently doing a free trial of apple music. it's not exactly persuading me to switch from spotify!

looks like this is fixed! just asked for an album & it’s playing in order. think they must’ve tweaked it server side as still on 14.2!

 

[hv4153]

Yes, seems to be ok again!

Still happening for me with the newest OS

Just checked again with various albums - works for me...
