Default Has Anyone Ever Seen This Issue Before?

I had this in the Audio area, but I did not get a single reply so I am going to try it here.

Picture this...

I am riding along a country road on 2018 CVO Limited, the stereo blasting on SXM. A song comes on that I don't care for so I hit the "next" button to go to the next channel I have saved. Suddenly all that is coming out of the speakers is static with someone talking in the background. I look down to find that I am on a weather channel!. I hit the "next" button again and another weather channel comes up!
So I hit the home button and go to the SXM section and choose radio. I am now back to listening to my "home" SXM channel, but the page that comes up shows all of the weather channels not my saved SXM Channels. When I hit the next button I am back to a weather channel. This same thing is repeated when I try to FM channels. Heck it even happened when I brought up my USB drive!
Shutting off the radio does nothing, but turning the bike off for a few minutes makes it go away.
This has happened twice now.
I have not updated software. (Actually I am planning to do that soon).

Anyone ever see this before?

Nothing to add, but interested in the outcome.

I believe it has to do with your SEEK/ SCAN selection, but I forget which one skips song and which one skips band/ device.

I think this is his issue as well. Guy that I used to ride with would get the selection switched all the time and have to set it back. It's been so long I would have to dig up where the setting are. I am on the new GTX which is different I believe.

Do you have the home switch set to classic mode? If you inadvertently press the switch in, instead of left/right it will toggle through available audio sources.

I don't think it is that. When I switched to my USB Dongle the WB came up, On FM radio it came up and on SXM it came up. WB cannot be the next band for all 3 of these...

I think it might be if the alert is set?
