Happy to see that the Pulse Mini 2i is now Roon Ready!
However, the Group Zones link is greyed out, so I can’t group my Pulse Mini 2i with with my KEF LS50W.
Any thoughts on what the issue is here?

KEF LS50W are not able to group due to limitation with the implementation. They are not fully Roon Ready.
They will not become Roon Ready . This is a bespoke integration. Given the limits of the hardware platform, we were unable to get the speakers to implement RAAT .
This not-yet-release support is for networked speakers – no Windows involved. Are you mixing up USB and network streaming?
you should be able to do that now with the KEF LS50W in Windows without anything more from Roon or KEF.
Hi all,
Another release of Roon is rolling out to all platforms, with bug fixes, performance improvements, and support for KEF’s LS50W loudspeakers! Today’s release also sets the stage for localized versions of Roon in the near future.
KEF LS50 Wireless Support
We are proud to finally release support for KEF’s fantastic LS50W speakers in Roon!
KEF’s speakers were Digital Audio Review’s Product Of The Year last year, and while it took a bit of effort to get Roon streaming directly to the LS50w…
I use a RPi with Ropieee to feed the KEF so I can group them.

Thanks for the reply.
Disappointed to hear they’re not fully Roon Ready but sounds like it was quite an effort to get them natively integrated (which works great), and good to know that the RPi option is there if I ever must have grouping option.
