Sims Not Sleeping in Beds

I've just started playing again for the first time since July. Of course, I had to update the game in order to install "Get Together" and start playing again, so I don't know if it's the EP or a patch that's caused the problem. For some reason, my sims will not sleep in their beds unless I specifically click on the bed and tell them to sleep. Instead, if they're tired, they'll head for a sofa or bench. Even if someone else is sitting there -- or even napping -- my sim will still try to squeeze in and sleep there, as well.

I typically play families, not single sims, and I like to use the "auto-solve" feature as I'm managing larger households. It's very frustrating for me as a player to think my sim is going to bed only to discover that he or she has once again crashed on the couch. Is anyone else having a similar problem?

I've tried to ignore it and/or be sure I'm clicking on the bed when I want a sim to sleep, but it's annoying enough that I finally decided to post here in the feedback section. Something needs a little tweaking, I think. If a sim's need for sleep is in the red, he/she should have sense enough to go to bed and sleep, not try to curl up on the couch in the midst of a busy household.

    I have no mods or custom content at all. Straight plain vanilla game.

    Yes, it is. The only "bug" category I found pertained to Mods, so I thought Feedback was where I should post about a minor problem. I didn't know I was doing something horribly wrong, and I'm extremely sorry if I've offended you or any other poster by such a huge mistake.

    I made a house with 5 children and they were only given the option to "sit" on some, even after they were claimed and no monsters had appeared. I to resell the bed and buy singles... It happened again with one the next day and had to resel. Not sure what gives.

    It’s here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/bd-p/The-Sims-4-Bugs
    They got rid of the little bug section for this forum, but this one uses the same account you’d use to sign in here.
