Now, if I say, "Alexa, play Talk Sport", I just get the response, "Here's a station you may like from Amazon Music, …." (and it's never anything I would like!). I have to say "Alexa, play Talk Sport on Tunein" to get what I want.


I've tried looking at the default settings in the app, but I don't see a default setting for radio. Is this something that anybody else has experienced? Can it be fixed?
I just look in my Alexa app and you can still setup TuneIn under Music Services, but you cannot set it as the Default Station apparently. It only lists Amazon Music, iHeartRadio, and SiriusXM as the options under Default Station. Amazon is notorious for constantly changing things, so no clue when they made those changes or which changes might be on the way in a future upgrade.
