Roon Bridge not selectable

[Benni]

I have a Roipeee (Raspi4 with Hifiberry Digi+ 1.7 Build 571), it can connect to the Roon-Server (QnapTS-253Be 1.7 Build 667), at least I see it as Roon Bridge under about. Unfortunately this roipeee does not appear as a playback device under Audio.
A while ago I could connect, but now I have reinstalled the Roon Server and the Roon Bridge.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for your help!

Hi @Benni,

Can you provide some details about your networking setup?

[Benni]

Yes of course. It is a wired network, no routing in between simply connected directly at the switch.

Here is the About page

and here are the audio settings

Are there any other settings somewhere?

Hello @Benni,

Is there any change in behavior if you temporarily try to host the Core on your PC? As in does this issue only happen when the QNAP is the Core? To try the other PC as a Core:

• Open Roon on the other PC you wish to try as the Core
• Roon Settings -> General
• Disconnect
• On the “Choose your Core” screen, press “Use this PC”
• If asked to Unauthorize, you can go ahead and do so. You are limited to one active Roon Core at a time but you are free to switch between them as often as you’d like.
• Verify if the same behavior occurs on the different PC

Hi @noris

Thank you. Some minutes ago I had the same idea.
Unfortunately this was not the solution

But now I have found the cause:

In the housing of the Hifiberry the DAC had no contact to the Raspi.
No DAC no music. quite simply

Thanks for your support. I will buy a display with case.

Yes, for the DAC to show up in Roon it also must have a connection with the Pi, happy to hear you were able to find the cause and resolve it!
