"OK Google" not opening Google Maps

Hello,
I have my phone successfully set up so I can say "OK Google, set an alarm for 8pm" or "OK Google, call home" and it just works. But if I say "OK Google, navigate to London", it just comes up with some search results. How do I make it trigger the maps app (which I freshly downloaded yesterday)? I've signed in to the Google maps app, and accepted all the "allow Google to harvest all my data, make wild (but frighteningly accurate) assumptions about me and sell it all to the highest bidder" agreements.

I'm testing this at home, with the phone happily connected to my reasonably fast wifi router.

As much as I hate to do it, I have also checked in Privacy Guard that the Google App and the Maps app can just go in and access and control every possible detail of my phone.

I have Cyanogenmod installed - maybe that's causing the problem, but I can't find any mention of this problem on the cyanogenmod forum.

Any suggestions, anyone?

Thanks in advance,

Paul


UPDATE:
After another reboot today, it's working! :)
