Sling TV will not load up. All other apps work

This issue was reported 10 days back and a resolution provided. That resolution does not work with my Roku TV and 2 other streamers. I don't understand why the discussion was closed there was no confirmation the issue was fixed. As previously noted SlingTV works on my android phone iPhone and computer but NOT on any of my Roku devices. The issue started right after Roku update to my devices. I believe they are linked and would like to get further assistance on the Roku side. I have reached out to SlingTV also.

I have the same issue. Will show Sling logo for a few seconds then go to black screen with spinning circle, and stay stuck there. Never loads to Sling home screen.
