Hello @Edsworth_John,

Since you’re running macOS, the behavior you’re seeing is consistent with the newer, stricter Local Network permission controls in the recent macOS releases.

Please try the following steps:

  1. Open macOS System Settings → Privacy & Security → Local Network
  2. Make sure Roon and Roon Server are both enabled
  3. Even if they are already enabled, please toggle them off and back on
  4. Fully quit Roon Server from the macOS menu bar / task bar
  5. Reboot your Mac
  6. After reboot, launch Roon again and check if the devices is avaliable again.

Once these permissions are refreshed and the system restarted, your audio devices should reappear.

Please let us know if the issue persists after these steps, and we’ll continue from there.

Hey @Edsworth_John,

Just checking in on this. Were you able to go back into macOS System Settings, confirm that both Roon and Roon Server have Local Network access, toggle those permissions off and back on, then fully quit Roon Server and reboot the Mac? After that restart, we asked you to launch Roon again and see whether the audio devices show up again. Let us know what you’re seeing, and we can take the next step from there.

Please note, if we don’t hear back from you this thread may close automatically soon. If the thread auto-closes and you need further assistance, please submit a reopen support request via the technical support help form below and specify that the issue should be reopened. Thank you.

Hey @Edsworth_John,

Glad to hear you got this sorted. We’re happy to hear the issue has been rectified, and that reinstalling Roon Server brought your endpoints back, including the Yamaha AVR and Sonos speaker you were not expecting to see. We’ll go ahead and mark this thread for closure. Enjoy your Roon experience! :blush:
