Local vs Tidal: Why does Roon stream from Tidal instead of playing the higher quality file locally?

Description of Issue

Quite frequently I notice when playing an album that resides both locally and on Tidal, Roon will choose to only play the Tidal version and I don’t see a way to change this behavior or even manually select the local file.

Roon clearly shows the tracks are available both locally and in Tidal but will only play the Tidal versions.

Any help is appreciated!
