Music is playing in Roon.
In the Windows 11 control panel, go to System → Sound → Mono audio and switch from off to on or from on to off. You can find this setting by typing “mono audio” in the start menu.
Music stops in Roon. Pause button is still displayed and indicates music should be still playing. Sometimes Roon displays the message that it lost control of the audio interface.
Clicking on next button resumes audio.
Foobar works fine during the switch, but the audio stops for <1s.
I was testing improper headphone balance. Since I had 2 sources of music, Roon and Foobar, it made sense to use a single configuration point.
Thanks for letting me know about the Roon’s DSP. It is a feature I wasn’t aware of.
Anyway, I found out Roon’s robustness can be improved and I expect an update to fix this. Having the pause button active while the music is not playing is a no go, don’t you think?
