Description Of Issue
Everything working fine until this morning - Roon crashed.
I could stream via Blusound app, also Qobuz app (which sounds terrible) but Roon Nucleus no longer found or findable. I rebooted router and Nucleus, twice.
Do you have the perpetual “Looking for your Roon core” message in the apps?
I’m having a similar problem with a similar nighthawk and bluesound setup. Stopped streaming last week and nothing at all has worked since. I can see the nucleus on the network through my router, though.
My web UI is working, but all of the Ethernet and Roon Server settings that should be there are just gone.
Are you seeing that too?
No amount of rebooting or OS reinstalling has worked for me.
Update, I tried locating the database location, no luck. I rebooted the nucleus yet again and lo! I could choose the nucleus as core and Roon is up and running. The only change in between these events happened to be me updating my Bluos Windows app, what that has to do with anything, likely nothing. Anyway, now the sound quality is HORRIBLE and this happened during playback prior the 36-hour long crash. It is also horrible via Qobuz direct - clicks, pops, drop outs so now I need to contact Qobuz?
D, thanks for the attention. Indeed things did sound utterly unbearable for a day - out of my laptop, for example. Then, mysteriously, all better. Is it my router/modem? Is it the feed from the internet provider? Is it something Qobuz was up to? I checked my settings as best I could all around and I’m chalking it up to another mysterious, ghost-in-the-machine experience. Streaming is great but there’s no getting under the hood on some of these troubles and as long they don’t last, so be it. Thanks again.
It’s hard to say where the sound quality issue was stemming from — If it was limited to one endpoint, that would point toward the issue being there. But if it happened all endpoint, and only for Qobuz playback, that definitely points to networking issues of some kind. Have you noticed any patterns as to when this occurs? Have you seen it happen again since?
