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!
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
Which is why I'm so glad this my secondary setup and not my primary. I would never ever ever go with Roku ever again on anything. No wonder why TCL is now also offering Android OS where you choose do you want Roku or Android, I have Android on my main setup and it's night and day better. No no its years ahead!
Was this issue ever resolved?
In the past week, I have emailed Roku twice about this issue and I haven't had any replies.
Not to my satisfaction. They did implement a three level selector, but that’s hardly a true volume control. Their solution is for the surround speakers together. No individual control provided
I have a Sony android TV too, but i still use the Soundbar for sound. What wireless surround setup do you use?
My main setup isn't wireless its a hard wired old school traditional method with a receiver and individual speakers. You're never going to get the level of control you have going that route with a wireless setup unless you spend $1500 on the Samsung HW-Q950T. Nakamichi is a more affordable option ranging from $700-$1200, but doesn't have room correction. Even Vizio is far and away better than this Roku setup ranging from $300-700, same doesn't have room correction.
Thanks, I am thinking of returning my Roku speakers now.
Are there any good surround sound speakers (with volume control) that can be paired to Roku streambar?
Sorry, I’ve not been following it. I gave up on wireless
Make sure the expanded stereo setting is on “music” (even if you are watching a movie or tv) then turn surround level up.
I feel my role in the debate here is to be somewhere in the middle of that, kind of like lukewarm water. Well, as long as there’s, you know, ___ and _____, I could do without the rock n’ roll. But for now, turn "surround level" up to 11.
Bonus points if you can fill in the words!
