Thank heavens it’s not just me. Can’t for the life of me get it to play Radio 2 on DAB. I’ve been scouring the user guide to see if I was using the voice command incorrectly.

If I ask it to play a station that’s ONLY on DAB it seems to work, but if there is a corresponding FM channel that’s what I get. Frustrating but guess I’ve got to learn to live with it.

I can't get it to work at all with DAB. BBC 5 Live, which is not on FM of course, just returns random selection of FM frequencies.

Honestly in 2018, it's pretty hopeless. Obviously I'm not expecting Alexa/Siri levels of interaction here, but surely this is a basic?

I just say "DAB Radio 2" and it works (usually). Note that it's DAB said as a word, not the individual letters D A B.

Just tried that - worked once and then no luck in the next 20 attempts. Got to say that overall I’m rather dissapointed in the voice control system.
