1. Unlock your car with the key fob
2. Set the seat memory
3. Add a radio station or SAT station to preset and make sure you have presets checked in Media
4. set the seat memory again
5. Exit car and lock with the key fob

Be sure to also only have 1 of the keys on you. The above steps solved the issue for me. Mine was kicking me back to the whole SAT catalog periodically. I think there must be some bug where when using comfort access to unlock/lock the car it's not memorizing all the settings for your profile. I haven't had the issue re-occur after taking the above steps, whether I use the key fob or comfort access to unlock/lock the car. Hope this works for you!
I'm pretty sure this only works if you go commando and stand on your left foot only during the entire process. Key fob has to be in the right hand. Flat brimmed hat must be worn during steps 1 - 3, then turned into rally cap for steps 4-5. Easy.

Modern BMW's need an on/off button so we can just reboot them from time to time.
