[Roku Ultra 4660x Reboots on SomaFM app screensaver since May 25, 2024, update]

To note, I have 2x Roku Ultras 4660x in different locations, both are behaving in the same manner.

If the Roku reboots, then the SomaFM screensaver will work fine 1 time only. Example: if SomaFM has initiated its screensaver upon a fresh reboot, it works, but if I change the listening station and the screensaver kicks back on, it will reboot the Roku.

This problem was not occurring before the May 25, 2024, update.

I made an attempt to contact SomaFM but there was no response. It's very annoying if I forget to reboot the Roku before using this particular app.

On the Soma.fm website, there is a notice to Roku users that the developers are aware of this issue and will be addressed with a Soma update/patch in a couple of weeks.

Current workaround is to disable the screensaver under Settings/Theme on the Roku device or RokuTV.

There is another discussion re:this issue in another thread with this same info provided.
