me/player/recently-played -- not updating?

[Larry-Person]

I'm noticing that the response from GET https://api.spotify.com/v1/me/player/recently-played does not reflect recent listening. In the response the most recent track was played at 2021-07-10T14:33:04.939Z and the account has been listening to music all day since then. (Note that v1/me/player/currently-playing is correctly reporting the currently playing track.)

Is this a known problem?

Thanks in advance!

Actually it is not the same issue. In my case the recently played list in the app shows a list of songs as intended but the API does not return any of the results.
