Description Of Issue

in 1.7 when I turn on hegel h390 - connected by USB to roon bridge (ubuntu18) on intel computestick - it appears instantly in zone list. every time.

not after 1.8 upgrade: now in three cases hegel appears in zone list only after core restart. and - strangely enough - it appears in zone list for grouping - and plays when grouped! but when i de-group it, it won’t appear as independent playable zone. core reboot - and it appears.

one of A LOT of regressions :frowning:

Hi @sergej_teregeshev

Does the device still show up in Settings > Audio when it is unavailable to choose in the Zone picker?

yes, hegel was available in settings->audio when it was unavail for zone transfer. will do all of screenshots when problem occur next time. today’s morning it came online well when turned on

currently I have no clear idea of how situationally that problem manifest itself, if I learn how to repeatedly reproduce it - I’ll update that topic

came from a walk - and again @support - hegel is on, but only visible in settings->audio and grouping - not in the selectable audio zones:
