I just upgraded to 1.2 tonight as soon as I got word it was released. Rebooted Roon from the iPad and it no longer sees my DAC, nor do I see how to add it back. It’s a Bryston BDA-3 and this setup has been rock solid for months.
Help!!
Able to play music in my system.But I don’t see my dac in audio settings like I used to.
@scirica, @mike will be around to help investigate soon.
In the mean time, I’d like to point out: if you are using a 1.1 remote to speak to a 1.2 core, you will not be able to access audio settings from that remote–that part of the app has been completely rebuilt.
App store submissions are pending with Google and Apple as we speak. Google is usually pretty quick (hours), and Apple is…well, Apple. For the time being, you will be in a better position to troubleshoot from a PC or Mac.
To add, I think all audio devices get dropped on upgrade because of the new audio engine. I was able to reconfigure mine as I have a couple 1.2 remotes running on OSX.
That is not what we intended–the settings are meant to be migrated. I’ve definitely seen it work a few times.
(That’s not me saying you’re wrong–there could absolutely be a bug in the migration process, and if there were it would totally explain @scirica’s issue too–he might just need to re-enable his DAC from a 1.2 remote/app)
My local playback DAC on one of my remotes definitely didn’t migrate on OSX.
Didn’t pay attention to my Squeezebox Touch as I was so excited to enable Roonbridge on my HTPC instead. I already unplugged my squeezebox Touch.
Yes, audio settings on network devices and outputs directly connected to your DAC should migrate over to 1.2.
The old audio infrastructure on remotes has been completely deprecated, so they’ll need to be reconfigured, just this once 
Edit: Thanks to all that came to my rescue last night. A couple of quirky things, partially my own firewall situation, but the end result is that I’m up an running! Can’t wait for the iPhone control app.
Well, this is a total disaster for me so far. I run roonserver on my media-pc with an iPad mini 4 as my controller. On my iPad I saw the upgrade availabity and went for it. My first issue is chronicled in the opening post. Based on guidance above, I went to a PC on my network that is running Roon as a remote. Upgrade button was there so I upgraded. Now, the remote PC cannot find my library on the network.
I realize these things happen with upgrades, but to have such a great experience and now this if very frustrating. Hate to say it, but until this is straightened out its back to JRiver.
Please keep the ideas coming.
P.S. When the remote PC could not find the library, I did a full uninstall/install and once again set the remote pc up as a remote when prompted. Still unable to find my roonserver.
You’ve confirmed RoonServer is still running there, correct? I’m wondering if some of the new services we have running in 1.2 have triggered a firewall prompt you need to confirm or something like that.
Let’s confirm what you’re seeing on the media-pc, and we’ll go from there.
Hey Mike! Long time
You might have missed my last post, but yes, I now realize the iPad is out of sync until Apple approves 1.2. So, based on guidance above I went to another pc on my network that I use as a remote. Upgraded that pc to 1.2 and now it cannot find my roonserver.

We keep missing each other
No popups on the media pc. I’ve restarted roonserver multiple times. I’m typing this on my “remote” laptop that is definitely connected to the same network. As a matter of fact, I can connect to that media pc via VNC from this machine, so I know they see each other.
Have you tried restarting the media pc? I know why? But it’s worth a shot.
If you have firewall running on the media pc, disable it completely and see if it helps.
Thanks. I have rebooted the media pc a couple of times. No firewalling, but I’ll double-check. I’ve decided to install available Windows updates on the media pc and see if that does anything.
So the Ipad with 1.1 still sees the roonserver, but your remote PC with 1.2 doesn’t?
Thanks @scirica. To be clear:
- The iPad can see Roon Server running on the media pc
- The remote PC was able to see Roon Server before you updated, but not after?
I’m thinking this is sounding like firewalls or security software, perhaps on the remote PC. What are you running there? Any firewalls at all?
Mike:
Answer to both questions is yes.
You nailed that issue! Funny I have never had a firewall issue getting to my roonserver from the remote pc before. I turned off the firewall and now I’m connected. I can’t run without a firewall, so this is just a temporary solution until we have the iOS controller available.
Thanks,
Steve
Ok, good start. Let me know how it’s going with the DACs now that you can access the new audio settings.
Also, let me know the operating systems involved here, and whether there’s anything non-standard about your Firewall settings. If this isn’t working for you, I’d like to see if we can reproduce the issue in house and do better.
Thanks for your patience @scirica!
Ok…
I see that once I got the remote configured (laptop running Windows 7 professional) I had to add my Bryston DAC back as an audio device. The signal chain looks a little different; it is now Source ->Roon Advanced Audio Transport -> Output (WASAPI Exclusive Mode). Does that sound right? I raced through the BDA-3 configuration rather quickly. I suppose I can go in and make changes.
What is very cool is that I now have volume control over my BDA-3 from Roon, which wasn’t possible before. Now I have to go play with the radio a little bit. Hopefully there will be a thread for some good Radio URL’s!
That’s enough for now. Need to go watch my Warriors set a new record!
Oh…One more thing. Once I configured/added back my BDA-3, I can see it on my iPad mini 4 as well, so I can control my roonserver from the iPad. Just won’t have all the new features until the app release.
