Cannot Play TV Shows from Information Dialog

My “Default Select Action” for videos is set to “Show Information”. However this creates a problem for playing Tv Shows from the home screen widgets. For example when select any tv show from the “Unwatched Tv Shows” homescreen widget, it brings up the information for that tv show. Now when I press the “Play” button nothing happens. What would happen in the previous version of Kodi is that it would navigate to the list of episodes. I can also confirm that this same behaviour happens when I press “i” to bring up the tv show information from the normal tv show listing as well. Grateful if this could be looked into. Thanks.
