Issues after May 4 Sirius Update

Anyone experiencing issues with channel selection and display not matching after the May 4th update with their satellite radio?
If so, any fix?
I will also call Sirius and see what they say. Their website claims this could happen with the XM radios, but no advise on the MB units.

Called Sirius today, and escalated to a tech. Bottom line is that they are aware of the issue, it's happening to several factory units since the update, and they expect to have a fix in the next day or two.
Another issue they are aware of is the radio resetting every time you start the vehicle, it will forever try to "Acquire Signal" and there will be no audio.
The fix for that is also on the way, but a workaround is to switch off again and remove the key, wait 20-30 seconds and restart.

I believe I heard from talking with one of the navtv techs that the issue might be too much info or too many letters that the mb cant handle.... now I dont know the validity of the claim... but that is what they were stating prior to the update

Finally fixed.
Got another tech who had me completely shut off everything to do with Bluetooth, (iPhone, TEL on Command and including removing the puck), then he shut the service down, as if the radio was not activated, then he restarted.
All issues resolved.
Hope this helps.
