I'm happy Roku is finally listening to us after months of us asking, but wish there was better transparency in terms of the release of this update.

I see all of the same question, How/Can I adjust or turn up the volume of the rear ROKU wireless speakers. But I do not see the answer or solution! So. Is it possible to adjust the volume on these wireless speakers?
Hi, this was actually solved back in October (page 4 of this thread) and my answer above. Roku solved this with the Roku OS update to 9.4, which now allows you to adjust the rear speakers level. As for how to adjust when you are in a program (not on the home screen) but watching something press the Asterix button and then scroll down to Sound Settings you will see it there
No, it was not. Roku slapped a 3-position switch on their interface, and called it a volume control. It isn’t. It is a half-asses insult to their customers
Hi,
‘canyon tell me how to adjust it to loud/louder? I’ll be returning them unless I can figure out how to turn the sound up.
I also received the latest update to adjust the volume on the rear speakers. I am not sure how to do it. Are there separate controls to do this?
* Option * button while streaming, Sound Settings.
How do you adjust the volume?
spanglg, did you update your Roku soundbar to the latest software of Roku 9.4? If so, then when you're in a program watching something press the * asterisks button on your Roku remote and then scroll down to "Sound Settings" and to adjust the rear speakers scroll down to Surround Level.
I think you have to be actively watching a show on the Roku device and then press star key on the Roku remote.
Then just follow the prompts.
Note: after you have adjusted the speakers to your liking, they will stay at those levels for when you watch programs from other inputs, like a Blu-ray player.
How do you adjust rear speakers when watching on a different HDMI input on a non-RokuTV?
I'm watching TiVo OTA on Samsung HDMI1 and Smart Soundbar (with Rear Roku Speakers) is on HDMI3(Arc). The sound works everywhere but the rears are way to loud because I was listening to music earlier. Can I adjust the rears while watching TiVo or do I have to flip over to Roku, adjust the sound, then flip back to TiVo?
Hello,
Finally got the subwoofer, streambar and wireless speakers connected! I see the surround sound settings (* on remote) for TV/Movie and Music. Nothing seems to happen on the first, but works fine on Music? Am I missing something, or does it require the channel to output something?
