· After restarting my Roon server on my Mac mini M4, Roon doesn't recognize Roon Ready devices on my network until I restart the wifi router. (i.e. they don't show up under Settings>Audio, and they aren't available to stream to.)
If I restart the Roon server again, or restart the Roon Ready devices, they will show up in the listed devices under Settings>Audio again for a second or two, but then disappear. The only way I have found to connect to them again is to unplug and replug the wifi router.

Thanks for the report. We are currently tracking a known issue with the latest update that affects the discovery of Roon Ready devices, and your symptoms sound very similar.
To help us confirm if your case is linked to this active investigation (rather than a multicast issue with the Buffalo router), could you please perform one specific test next time the devices disappear?
Do not reboot your router or your Mac.
Go to the macOS Menu Bar (top right, near the clock), locate the Roon icon.
Click it and select “Quit Roon Server”.
Does performing only this action allow the devices to reappear (even if they disappear again later)?
If this brings them back, it confirms you are experiencing the software issue we are investigating here, and we can rule out the router configuration as the root cause.
Yes, that was something I had already tried. Quitting and restarting the Roon Server had the same effect: the devices would reappear momentarily, and then disappear.
I had suspected that this was related to the other recent issues as you mentioned, so I’m glad to know it’s not necessarily a configuration issue on my end.
When you mention that this allows the devices to appear momentarily, does this mean that you only see the devices and they disappear, or are you actually able to play music through them? If you are able to play music to them for some time, then yes, this does sound like the known issue.
