Hi @patouskii,
That does seem to be expected since Roon takes precedence over the incoming stream and this explained in our RAAT Documentation.
Two-way control integration . Artwork and now-playing information can be displayed on hardware devices. Front-panel controls and IR remotes can control Roon via the device. Volume controls on device front panels can be kept in sync with Roon. If you’re talking to a device that has multiple inputs, and start music in Roon, the input automatically switches to Roon’s input. Anyone who’s used Roon’s Meridian integration knows the value of this set of capabilities.
I was a bit confused since you mentioned that you have to long press on pause to switch the input, a simple press of the pause button and waiting 5-10 seconds will “release” the audio device and allow you to switch the input.
Thanks,
Noris
