Used to be that when I'd ask my HomePods, which are connected to Apple Music, to "play some music", they'd reply with, "Playing a music mix just for you", and it'd be pretty decent collection of things from my library.

Fast forward to around 2 weeks ago and the HomePods started replying, "Playing your library on Shuffle" when prompted to do the same thing. My library is quite large, and the results of the random shuffle are usually really poor compared the "mix just for me".

Any idea how I can change this? Do I need a Delorian to go back in time? Did Apple change something. I certainly don't _remember_ changing anything.

Sincerely,
Sad HomePod owner.
 
Of note - I've since tried factory resetting the HomePods and fiddling with the Primary User setting. Neither of which seem to have made any difference.
