Finally the update is here and yes it definitely does change everything! You can now adjust the rear wireless speakers from low-normal-louder-loudest. Thank you Roku finally!
This really needs to be addressed. Its been far too long to have subpar surround sound. Please release an update to severely increase surround speaker volume. We cannot hear it when the soundbar is on. it makes the speakers useless and it is marketed as surround sound.
It would appear that this is (hopefully) FINALLY being addressed!
From Roku's blog, here:

"Surround level control for multi-channel audio – If you own Roku audio products with a multi-channel speaker configuration, you’ll be able to adjust the volume of your rear surround speakers relative to the volume of your soundbar for sound levels that match your preference."
I checked my soundbar & did a system update. It's still showing 9.3. I'll be watching for 9.4 & look forward to cranking them rear speakers!
Better than nothing, but 4 discrete levels are hardly what I would call flexible. Will have to experiment to see if it is at least serviceable. One thing for sure, it cannot be worse than the nothing we had before
still nor impressed though
Fingers crossed, getting ready to test and experiment! Thank you ROKU for a step in the right direction.
I think I have a very recent update, and I can adjust the volume of my surround speakers to where I wouldn't need/want it any louder.
