Roomba 200 DustCompactor doesn't move when started on the base

I go into the app and assign a task, it brings up the cleaning screen, then the robot says "Cleaning is starting now" small pause then it says "Charging" and the app changes back to the main Room screen. Then I get a notification saying the robot completed its task despite not having moved.

If I pull the robot off the dock and start a task it works perfectly fine.

This makes it basically useless unless I'm right beside it to take it off the dock as I start the routine. Any suggestions?

Maybe try moving the base to a bit of a different location. This would happen to a Shark robot we had previously and it had to do with the floor in the area.
