Hi @support
I used an old laptop to run Roon Core. I was able to wake the laptop with Wake On Lan. Worked fine. I had to switch to a more powerful laptop (I’m going to use DSP) and installed an HP Elitebook 840G1 to run Roon core and configured it to be able to use Wake On Lan. Now I have the following problem:
- The Laptop receives the ‘magic packet’ and wakes from sleep (the fan starts running, the keyboard lights up and Roon Remotes connects). The screen of the HP laptop stays black/ off.
- I can verify that Roon Core is running: I can see my collection on the Roon Remote.
One big problem: I get the message ‘No audio device found’ on Roon remote. After I touch an arbitrary key on the HP laptop, the laptop screens starts working and Roon remote finds the audio devices!
What I tried already (but didn’t fix the problem)
- I tried the steps from this website: https://support.hp.com/rs-en/document/c04947950 So updated the bios, disabled hybrid shutdown, checked again whether wol on for the lan driver was enabled, and changed the registry as instructed
- I tried the energy schema ‘max performance’
Can someone please support how to fix this?
2/2/2019: important update
I found out that WOL from hibernate does function correctly. Unfortunatly, this is no structural solution (takes to long to start up). When using WOL from hibernate the laptop screen is also not blank but is directly active. So: active laptop screen = Roon works correctly?
Some details
- Most recent version of Roon is installed
- Using windows 10 64 bits
- Using a Laptop Elitebook 840 G1 (connected via LAN cable)
- Music stored on Synology NAS
