siriusXM app not refreshing in IOS 10

Hi All,

I'm using an iPhone 5s, and since I installed IOS 10 my siriusXM app doesn't seem to be refreshing the way it used to.

I listen to the OTR channel quite a bit, and say I turn it off at 9:30 and turn it back on at 11:00 the content that was playing at 9:30 is still what's playing. Pressing the forward button doesn't help, and the skip button is dimmed out. The only way I can get what's playing currently in the above example is to go to another channel. and then come back.

I have the most current version of the app, and in IOS 9 if I went back after leaving the station for a while I could hit the skip button and it would skip ahead to the current time.

I turned off background refresh to save on battery recently, but I looked under there a few minutes ago and the siriusXM app isn't even listed. Any ideas? I don't think there's a faster way of changing channels on the app than closing it and reopening it so the channel button shows, then clicking that to bring up the categories and then clicking on entertainment and then flicking to the right channel so I sure hope there's a solution to my problem. Btw the OTR channel is the one I listen to most, but this also happens on the music channels.
