No matter what Roku claims, I can't help but believe it is the fault of the Roku Express devices specifically

 It is also happening on Roku TVs. I have updated mine as advised and it still plays for no more than 20 min.

I do believe the problem is with SiriusXM. It worked fine on my TVs up until the second I was forced to auto-update on May 17. As soon as I was required to install the slow, bloated, overly graphics-based new channel, that's when it all went to **bleep**. Nothing changed with Roku... what changed was the Sirius app.

I should add that I used to listen at home all day every day, so I know for certain that it was working as recently as 12 hrs before the forced update.

I'm confused, you said nothing has changed with the Roku but also wrote that there was a forced update.  Forced updates can commonly cause issues.  The forced update is likely the problem.  I agree, that the whole look of the Sirius home page has changed.  How would one explain the exact same thing happening with another app  (Audacy) which is completely unrelated to Sirius XM (same time-line) if it's not Roku Express or Roku TV software related?  My Roku stick is actually older than my 2 Roku Express units and works like a charm.

As said in my previous post, I am using TuneIn on my Roku Tv now and just stopped using SiriusXM until we get one of those "issue has been resolved" messages which seems like will never happen 😂

Ya Think..  I have 4 roku devices and the only ones that I have the problem with is with the Express.  Roku needs to call on Elon Musk and borrow some rocket scientists to fix the problem.

@Dommi There wasn't a forced update of the Roku platform, it was a forced update of the Sirius XM channel. Roku doesn't build or release the channel, Sirius does. The problem is with the new Sirius build, not the Roku build (which didn't change between May 16 and 17, when the problem began).

Well over 200+ posts to this thread and growing. Keep fighting the good fight and hopefully a real solution is provided by ROKU/SiriusXM.

Since switching my ROKU Express to a $15 ONN Streaming stick the only message I get is "(!) Are you still listening? (Keep Listening) (No, I'm done)"

It's silly to ask if we are still listening, are we still paying?
