Description of Issue

I have three BlueSound devices that have been connected via Roon for a couple of years: Node 2i, Pulse Flex and a Pulse Flex 2i. A couple of weeks ago, Roon stopped recognizing the Pulse Flex 2i as a Roon Ready device. Instead, it sees it as an Other Network Device available via AirPlay. How do I get it back to being recognized as a Roon Ready device (the sound quality is better)? I have updated all Roon, BlueSound and router software and shutdown/rebooted Roon Core (Nucleus), BlueSound devices and the router. I also tried connecting the Pulse Flex 2i using ethernet to the router and it was still not recognized as a Roon Ready device.

What version of BluOS do you have on it?

The Ethernet connection should have brought it back to life. I would do a factory reset on the Pulse Flex 2i, set it back up and see what happens.

5

Both the Pulse Flex 2i and the BluOS controller indicate that they are on the latest version (No Update Available)

It’s on Ethernet right now and not seen as a Roon Ready device - only Airplay. I will do a factory reset tomorrow and see what happens.

I have three Node 2is, a Node, a Pulse 2i and two Pulse Flex 2is and when all else fails, a factory reset has always corrected the problem. Good luck!

It should work then my 2 Flexes show up as Roon Ready. A reset would probably be the next thing to do, their software can be rather flaky.
