Please try to restart your Roon Server by closing the Roon Server app in the taskbar (MacOS), task manager (Windows) or rebooting your Roon Server machine.

· No, the issue remains the same

Different device

· I cannot switch to a different device

Are you still facing the issue on the different device

Record the timestamp

· Cannot find my roon server, reboot and try with different devices and problem still

Describe the issue

Cannot log in on my windows pc neither on my Android devices

Describe your network setup

Router is a live box fibra tried inserted IP manually but keeps searching for roon

Hello @jose_manuel_gallardo,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

Could you please follow the instructions found hereand upload a set of logs to our File Uploader?

Also, could you please let us know where you are running the updated version of Roon? Is it running in a container, or as a standalone app?

Once the logs have been uploaded, please let us know so we can check the server for your files.

Thanks!

Hi @jose_manuel_gallardo,

We’ve not seen any diagnostic log uploads to our server (see link in the post above). Our team is eager to investigate logs and help pinpoint this problem.

We do, however, see some recent account activity associated with your Roon account. Are you still experiencing issues with this remote?

Hi, Connor

As I did not receive any more replies from your side, on different posts
about Roon access problems with Qnap NAS, I did follow the instructions on
how to create a container in the container station with a link from Roon on
how to do it.
I tried several times as was little bit difficult for me but finally got
access the only problem is on how my music is now on folders, as I have on
my NAS music in two different HDD discs VOL1 +VOL2
On the link to create container there is option for music file and to add
additional mount.  Now I have  no ideal folders to manage.

I attached some screencaptures here to show it to you.

Previously I have
 in Vol1
POP-Rock
Blues
in Vol2
Jazz
Folk
Country
Classic


 If any can be done to solve it, please advise.

Best regards
Jose

Hey @jose_manuel_gallardo,

Thanks for the update! When you set up Roon in QNAP Container Station using Roon’s Docker instructions, the music folders from your NAS volumes (Vol1 with POP-Rock/Blues and Vol2 with Jazz/Folk/Country/Classic) need to be explicitly bind-mounted into the container.

Right now they aren’t, the paths the container is looking for (/Music and /share/container/roon-backups/JAZZ) either don’t exist or aren’t properly mapped.

Here are some next troubleshooting steps:

  1. Fix the container volume mounts in QNAP Container Station

You need to edit your Roon container and add bind mounts for each music folder. In Container Station:

  • Go to your Roon container → Edit → Storage/Volumes
  • Add a mount for each music location, for example:
    • Host path: /share/VOL1/POP-Rock → Container path: /music/pop-rock
    • Host path: /share/VOL1/Blues → Container path: /music/blues
    • Host path: /share/VOL2/Jazz → Container path: /music/jazz
    • (and so on for Folk, Country, Classic)
The exact host paths on your QNAP will look something like /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/Music or /share/VOL1_DATA/... — check your QNAP File Station to confirm the exact paths.
  1. Update Roon’s watched folders to match the new container paths

After fixing the mounts, go into Roon → Settings → Storage and point each watched folder to the new container-internal paths (e.g. /music/jazz, /music/pop-rock, etc.).

  1. The /share/container/roon-backups/JAZZ path looks wrong

That path looks like it was set up as a workaround and is mixing backup storage with music storage. Once you have proper music mounts, remove this location from Roon’s storage settings.

Let me know if this helps! :folded_hands:

Benjamin, thanks for yours but I am still doing something wrong.

I create volumes as I didnt before, deleted container application and creating new one with new instructions, incorporating mounts additionals.

When running ROON tried to create folders accordingly all ok except for one folder POPROCK unable to do it.

I attached screencaptures for your info and please can you tell me what is wrong

Benjamin, I solved it, delee vol in container for folder and edit new again, then add in roon and worked. Guess was I did name it when create volume without blank space POPROCK instead of POP ROCK. Now it works.

I checked for backups and in file station each folder has a roon backupfolder.

Only question is why sometimes when start running roon do not detect audio zone (my amplifier connected via usb to my NAS) only happens sometimes I have restart NAS, Roon, etc to detect my audio zone

Apart from that I think now all is ok.

thanks and regards

Hey @jose_manuel_gallardo,

Glad to hear everything is better. As for the audio zone not being detected, can you please let us know the exact local time and date when it happens next? We’ll enable diagnostics to see if logs contain any clues.

Thanks for yours, Noris

Tried to connect yesterday about 11 am Madrid (Spain) time.

I switch off NAS and roon, restart and connect again then detected audio zone, this is not the first time happens.

Apart from the big problem with my Qnap NAS that Roon went off, now solved with container app.

But usual problems are audio zone not detected or Ronn server not detected.

Only solution I have found is swithch off NAS and restart again which is sometimes frustrating

I have no clue as my devices are properly connected to router and my NAS via usb to my amp.

Thanks for all support

Best regards/Jose

Hi @jose_manuel_gallardo,

Thanks for sharing the above timestamp! From a fresh Roon Server diagnostic report, we can see the USB DAC disconnecting right after playback was paused — OnDisconnectedConnection refusedDeviceRemoved. This is may be a USB device enumeration problem, not a Roon problem. When the amp is idle and Roon releases the audio device (which it does after 5 seconds of pause), Linux drops the USB connection.

As a next step, can you try disabling USB auto-suspend in the Roon QNAP container/system. On Linux you can do this by adding to the container startup:

echo -1 > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend

Or in /etc/rc.local / the container’s init scripts. Alternatively, in the QNAP power settings, disable USB power management/selective suspend if that option exists in your QNAP firmware.

I would also see about trying to give the KSTB6130 a static IP in your router’s DHCP settings, and make sure multicast is enabled on your network switch/router.

Let me know if the above help! :folded_hands:

Hi, Benjamin

This is not easy for me, as I do not quite understand how to do it.

I tried to find on my Qnap NAS disabling USB auto suspend and cannot find it.

Alsoon container I do not know where I have to insert line
echo -1 > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend

KSTB6130 is my router what I did is give static IP to my NAS on router settings.

If you can help me on this, when start roon this morning happen same again, I did restart NAS and roon, audio usb to my amp show on again

I attached screenshot of my container, shall I add instruction after line 19 or how to proceed

Please advise

best regards
