Nvidia Shield TV: Does not display SRT subtitles when selected after movie starts

Anybody seeing similar?

If select SRT subtitle before beginning movie, then subtitles display correctly.

If select SRT subtitle after movie begins (none -> SRT External), then subtitles do not display. If then stop & restart playback, subtitles display correctly (like when selected prior to playback).

This happens with both MKV & MP4 containers. Embedded subtitles, PGS (MKV) and MOV_TEXT (MP4), do not have this problem. They display correctly whether chosen beforehand or during playback.

Following Plex naming conventions:
movie (year).mkv
movie (year).eng.srt

Plex Client 6.17.0.4579
PMS 1.13.0.5003 on Shield TV & Windows 10

Subtitles are a bit of a nightmare, all things considered.
