ROON won't connect to SONY TV via AIRPLAY2.

Describe your network setup

I am unable to stream music to my sony tv via Airplay 2.
I tried every mentioned in this post and still can get it work. I see that the thread was closed but the issue was never resolved.

Hi @Leo_Method ,

On the Airplay device, if you go to Settings > AirPlay and click on Airplay Everyone, you will see Security below. This might show Require Code First Time Only but should be changed to a Password. Please let us know if this helps.

When I setup a Password on Sony TV I still get the prompt on TV when ever I try to Airplay to the TV.
I notice that when I go to Audio setting in ROON when I setup the Sony TV as zone it takes longer than other zones (and it stays on the TV’s screen forever).

Thanks for giving that a try @Leo_Method . Can you please confirm the exact model of the Sony TV and any other relevant data you can find in its System Menu (firmware version, etc.)?

Hi,
Here is the TV Model.

Class BRAVIA XR A80L OLED 4K UHD Smart Google TV (2023)

I can cast ROON to all other zones via Airplay 2.
I have several Sonos Speakers, Home Pods and Home Pod mini , LG TV and Samsung Smart Monitor…

Hi Just following up on this. The issue is still persisting. Getting worse actually.

Hello @Leo_Method ,

Thanks for letting us know. We’ve activated diagnostics mode for your account and what this does is upload a log set to our servers for review.
