The gemara on 3B quotes R'Ashi who says until midnight Dovid would learn then at midnight would say shiros v'tishbachos. A few lines down it quotes R shimon Chasida who says that the harp woke him at chatzos and he would learn till amod hashachar. How do we reconcile these two things? Acc to rav ashi after chatzos he was saying shira, acc to r shimon chasida he was learning.

The Kollel replies: These are indeed two opinions as to what David ha'Melech used to do.
I assume that your problem is how Rav Ashi, an Amora, can argue with RebbiShimon Chasida, who was a Tana.
However, when it comes to Agadta, this is not uncommon.
