Hi all,
I’ve been enjoying Roon for a week or so and have been learning a bunch in this community. Holy cow this is enabling me to enjoy music like I haven’t in years!
I put Roon on a NUC this weekend (a NUC7i7DNHE running Windows 10 Pro). Late yesterday the front power light began steadily blinking, which the Intel support docs say is for a BIOS update, but the blink seems to go on indefinitely — until I access Roon via the app on my iPhone, at which point the light goes back to a steady on state and everything appears to behave as expected.
However, doing the same from the Roon app on my MacBook does not do this: Instead, it continues to blink and Roon says that the core is unavailable. This continues until I either run Remote Desktop and connect to the NUC, or access it with my iPhone. So, I’m wondering if this is some slightly strange sleep mode? My understanding is that Roon doesn’t support wake-on-Lan, but that’s sure what it feels like it’s doing — albeit only when pinged by the phone or by remote desktop.
Or perhaps something else is happening? At one point last night, Roon reported that no audio devices were found. Rebooting the NUC appeared to resolve that for now, and my Airplay, MacBook and iPhone audio outputs all appeared again.
I’d love any feedback on what may be happening and whether these two events are related. Thanks, all!
