Intermittent Issue with Audio Device Detection on MacBook Air M1 or Lenovo T14 Gen5 AMD Windows 11
I am experiencing an issue where my MacBook Air M1 sometimes detects the local audio devices in Roon, but other times it does not. As shown in the attached screenshots:
- One screenshot highlights the local Mac audio devices successfully detected (red box).
- Another screenshot shows when no local Mac audio devices are detected. In this case, I added the red text “Cannot find out the audio device on this Mac” to illustrate the issue.
Even when the Mac fails to detect the local audio devices, the “About” section in Roon does not show any differences, which suggests the connection between the Roon Remote and Roon Server is stable.
Given that the audio devices have been successfully detected a few times, I believe my network configuration is functioning correctly. This leads me to suspect that the issue may be caused by a software bug.
Setup:
- Roon Server: Installed on a Mac Mini M4 (latest software version).
- Roon Remote: Installed on a MacBook Air M1 (latest software version).
I have ensured that both the Roon Server and Roon Remote are updated to the latest software build. Additionally, I have tested the Roon Remote on a Windows 11 system and experienced the same issue where local audio devices intermittently fail to appear.
Could you please advise if this is a known issue or if there are any troubleshooting steps I can take to resolve this?
Thank you!
