    Hi, Whovicon Welcome to the Roku Community!

    We understand that you are having an issue with the voice remote. We are here to help. 

    Could you please confirm if the Fast TV Start feature is currently enabled?

    When Fast TV Start is activated, users can utilize a command from their Roku voice remote to listen to music, live radio, or podcasts while keeping the screen on their Roku TV off.

    Here's how to enable Fast TV Start:

    1. Press Home on your TV remote
    2. Scroll and select Settings
    3. Select System
    4. Select Power
    5. Select Fast TV Start
    6. Highlight Enable 'Fast TV Start' and check the box to enable it

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks,
    Jharra

    Hi Whovicon, Thank you for your prompt response!

    We recommend several troubleshooting steps that may help resolve the issue.:

    1. Inspect for Obstructions: Please ensure that the microphone is not obstructed or covered by any items. Sometimes, even small debris can interfere with its performance.
    2. Restart Your Roku Device: A quick restart of your Roku device may also resolve the issue. To do this, navigate to Settings > System > Power/System Restart.

    In the meantime, please consider using our Roku mobile app for temporary and backup remotes. For detailed instructions, please refer to our dedicated support article: How to use the Roku mobile app.

    Please keep us posted.

    Thanks,
    Jharra
