Recently updated Roon to Build 1489. But I believe I noticed the same irregularity with the previous Build as well, #1486.
Noticing that when I view the queue, it sometimes displays tracks I listened to months ago along with the “Jump to upcoming” button. This normally only happens when I manually scroll back to view previous tracks I played. But this appears to be happening on its own.
(NOTE: This is not adding tracks to the queue which Build 1484 fixed.)
Hmmm, FWIW I reported the fixed-in-1484 issue but this one doesn’t seem to happen to me. Not sure if I am trying the right thing (and I only have a “Jump to now playing” button)
Hi, @jb76, thank you for your report. May I ask you to post a video or screenshots that illustrate the issue you are seeing?
Thanks!

Believe the difference in verbiage in my example appears when nothing is playing vs. yours when something is playing.
Right, I was playing something when I checked
Hi, @ivan Sure, I’ll take a screenshot, when and if it happens again. It’s not something that happens frequently / consistently. But I noticed this irregularity twice yesterday. Once using Build 1486 and again after I updated to Build 1489.
A video is not relevant in this case since I’m not actually seeing the queue list in the process of moving to tracks listened to months ago. I simply clicked the queue button to view what song Roon Radio was going to play next and noticed that the tracks showing in the queue are from six months ago.
In an effort to clarify matters, here are screen shots depicting what I expect to see when clicking the Queue button and what I saw a couple of times yesterday…
This is what I normally expect to see…
But this depicts the irregularity I saw twice yesterday…
FWIW, during the process of manually scrolling through my queue list to take the depicted irregular screenshot above, I discovered that the June 5th date I witnessed yesterday is actually the last played history the queue shows. So, the irregularity I’m noticing is that I’m seeing the oldest /top of the queue list, instead of seeing the last played track in the queue as shown in the first image above.
Will attempt to monitor what steps take place before this irregularity occurs. But my normal Roon play habits are to start playing an album from my library, from beginning to end. During the album’s playback I may visit other albums / artists of interest within the Roon app. And occasionally I’ll take a peek at the queue to look at a track title recently played. Usually Roon Radio will kick-in and play a track or two before I stop play and out of curiosity, I’ll take a look at what Roon Radio had queued-up to play next.
There were a few times that playback paused or completely stopped. But I specifically checked the queue the last time it happened, and I did not notice the irregularity.
Thanks for the reply, @jb76, am I getting it right that the issue is that the screen position is moved automatically to the played section instead of showing the currently played item?
Thanks!

That is correct @ivan . I simply clicked on the Queue button and the top of the queue list, oldest, appeared instead of most current track(s).
There’s no button within Roon’s Queue page that I could have accidentally clicked on to cause this. And I seriously doubt that I could have accidentally stretched my left hand across my keyboard and accidentally touched the keyboard’s Home button on my keyboard while using my right hand to click my mouse on the Queue button.
That said, I have not experienced this irregularity since reporting it. Hopefully this was an unexplained anomaly and not a bug.
Thank you for the response, @jb76, we will take a look.

Well, the Queue listing irregularity appeared again displaying the oldest / top of the queue list at around 5:10 p.m. CST today.
FWIW, here is what I recall I did in case the Roon team wishes to see if they can replicate it:
(1) Listening to full album with the artist / album screen showing.
(2) Clicked on Queue button to view tracks remaining and it correctly displayed the current and unplayed tracks still in queue for album playing.
(3) Clicked on album icon at bottom left corner to reopen artist / album screen while album playback continued uninterrupted.
(4) Playback stopped automatically after album finished playing stating there was 'Nothing" available to play from the enabled Roon Radio.
(5) Clicked the Play/Pause button out of habit, even though it was greyed out and inactive, before clicking the “X” at top left corner to close the artist / album screen.
(6) Resulting display is the Queue page I had last viewed except it showed the oldest / top of queue list instead nothing, since Roon indicated there was nothing available to play, which is the normal view I would expect…
