Telling Siri to turn off the lights makes my Apple TV pause!

Very recently my Apple TV started pausing anytime I turn off [HomeKit] connected lights in my house using Siri. It happens every time I tell Siri to turn off a light - whether using Siri on my HomePod, Apple Watch, or iPhone. I'm using the most current operating systems for all devices. It happens every time - no matter which light or lights I control. I have Hue lights and Sengled lights - both are affected the same way. Very very very frustrating. Any suggestions on how to solve this?
