JUKE BOX VOICE CONTROL INTERMITTENT

I am continuing to build up my library of factory made CDs recorded to the jukebox, and am finding that some cannot be accessed by voice command.
If I call up album or artist info on the touch screen it is clearly there, but only some CDs can be accessed by voice command. Is there something I need to do to index them to the jukebox?

Other functions work fine after having set it up for my voice, eg SET temp, defrost, fan speed...the thing knows my voice, but some CDs it just doesn't understand the names of.

Doesn't seem to be related to CD age, for example some old BEATLES, it understands PLAY ALBUM YELLOW SUBMARINE. Doesn't like PLAY ALBUM WHITE ALBUM.

Anyone had this issue and is there a fix?

3 Weeks of silence so I am assuming no one else has had this exact issue. So I called the Sync-My-Ride support line. They tell me there is a known problem with intermittent voice control failures and a TSB for it, #12-1-16, reprogram APIM.
Has anyone had ANY voice control issues at all for any similar problems and tried this fix? Mine is a fairly minor problem, and just wondering if the TSB has any history of causing more problems than it fixes before getting it done....anyone had this procedure done and what was the result?
