Is there a Sirius channel rescan/refresh function in the MMI like the one for FM?

I recently got word of channel 29 now being all AC/DC but the MMI still lists it as Punk. I'm wondering if there's something I need to do periodically to refresh the channel names or if the MMI updates them automatically (having this as a manual function for FM but automatic for Sirius makes a bit of sense but not much).

Sirius rarely changes a channel name unless they plan to make the specialty channel a long term event.

E-Street Radio was in effect for a long time before they decided to make it permanent - then it got the channel name on all radios.

AC/DC radio is a temp promo channel, so i assume they are not planning to change the name for the short term.

There is also no way to change it manually in the MMI.

Nonetheless, I wish they just updated the damn channel names, whether a change is temporary or not.
It makes me wonder what's on the other ones that I never listen to just because of their names.
