My Question or Issue

There is an album titled "Discover Weekly" which prevents voice assistants like Google Assistant from playing my Discover Weekly playlist. If I tell Google to "Play my Discover Weekly playlist on Spotify" it plays this album instead of my curated playlist.

After reading some topics relating to this i found that asking Google Assistant to play MY discover weekly, it now plays the correct one!

I did hide that album before this and also blocked ("don't play this") all the artists on that album (after which it didn't play anymore, but didn't play anything else either). There should be a possibility to "don't play this" for albums and songs as well as artists.
