I have a Roku Express 4K+ with a Roku Voice remote.  I followed your instructions unpowering the Roku and then re-pairing the remote again and it still did not fix my right button.  It appears to me it is a mechanical button issue or the electronics inside the remote.  Every other button works on the remote.

Here is the info your requested:

  • The issue started slowly where the button intermittently worked and then I started trying different fixes such as changing batteries, turning on and off, rebooting, re-pairing etc and nothing worked and now the button totally doesn’t work
  • Roku Model # 3941X2
  • Roku Serial #:  X02200PTE39A
  • Device ID:        SOHAK37TE39A

Please let me know next steps to resolve
