Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Streaming Hardware with Roon Application No sound from 218

None of my 218 devices output sound anymore from Roon. Other Meridian devices work fine.
Have rebooted Nucleus, power cycled 218 devices, turned DSP speakers off and back on.
Is this a known issue?

I replied earlier over on the Roon forum.

I have a customer reporting the same. No audio from 218 regardless of input. Also using Roon Nucleus. Other Roon endpoint in the system work fine. Unfortunately I am not at home to check mine.

Thanks. Replied with more info.

My experience is that when Roon Rock is switched on after my 218, the latter will not connect to Roon. This has happened on several occasions. Same thing happens if I’m listening to headphones via Meridian Prime.

Subsequently, I’ve learned to switch-on my NUC first and then allow a couple of minutes for Roon to boot before switching-on my 218 and 210 (or Prime).

IIf you have Sonos gear, unplug it and leave it unplugged until Sonos can make a fix. Reboot the 218 and you should be back up and running.

Thanks. Just tried that but still no luck.

Can you access the 218's with the Meridian Control app?

Yes, that works fine. From the web interface too.

Roon will not automatically lock onto 218 unless you first select ‘Net’ on the 218 within the Meridian app.

When I say unplug your Sonos gear, I mean all of it, and so I am being perfectly clear, unplug every piece of Sonos gear that is connected to the same network as the 218 or 251 regardless if you are using "works with Sonos" or not. It matters.
