Live Smart Playlists still not updating?

One of the things I had my fingers crossed for more than anything else with the update to iOS5 was that Apple would have finally remembered that the iPod (and by extension the iPhone) started life as a music player and that they would have fixed the bug with smart playlists not updating on the device, so meaning you have to rely on syncing with iTunes on the computer to get it to update. But unfortunately my smart playlists still don't seem to be working. Has anybody found a work around to this?

iOS 5.0.1: Smart playlist not updating

In iOS 5.0.1 Music app, smart playlists set to dynamically update that use both playlist and plays as criteria are not dynamically updating. This is occurring on an iPod touch 5th gen. set to manually manage music.

 

Huge, annoying bug. Previous iOS 4 workaround involving using category and plays as criteria does not work in iOS 5 as it seems category is completely ignored.

 

This smart playlist bugginess is not present when viewing/using smart playlists in iTunes on Mac OS X with the device connected. The resulting tracks in a smart playlist as viewed on the device wildly vary from the tracks listed in iTunes.

 

Has anyone discovered any workarounds for creating dynamically updated playlists that use grouping criteria (e.g. track in other playlist, track includes certain grouping metadata like category) that work on device?
