Using Roon app on android with Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, SSC, 96 kHz 24 bit source, plays 24 bit in Roon on Galaxy S24 Plus, but down converts to 16 bit on S25 Ultra. Why?
Yes, i checked all of those things. No conversion in Muse, configured the same in BT and Galaxy Wear settings. Settings are straightforward. In Wear app there’s a setting under Sound quality and effects > Advanced quality options > Ultra high quality (UHQ) audio which is toggled on (thus at least seeing 96 khz). In BT, under Details for the device the UHQ toggle is on there as well.
As far as Developer Options is concerned 16 bit is not a configurable option for the ear buds using SSC codec.
Update: I just restarted the S25 Ultra and now the UHQ codec toggle has completely disappeared in BT settings and in the Wear app.
Update 2: Without doing anything else, now UHQ toggle has reappeared, I toggled it on again, and now Roon is no longer down sampling to 16 bit.
Based on your last reply, it seems like the issue may have been caused by a OneUI system glitch that temporarily returned the wrong device configuration. Could you please confirm if you’re still experiencing the issue?
We’ll be happy to investigate further if the problem persists.
