Roku wireless subwoofer popping noise

I have tried the resolutions offered for my roku subwoofer and none have worked. I’m still getting the popping noise. What can I do now is it covered under warranty?

I have had my Roku subwoofer for about two years now and have never had this problem. Also, I provided serial information on my initial response.

Thanks for the update, @Ujsmithj!

Does this popping sound come up whenever you open the device or during streaming? Could you also route us to the issue by providing us a recording of it?

Please keep us posted.

Thanks,

Rey

The popping noise happens at random times, so it is hard to record.

my 2 surround sound speakers are making that same popping sound and it’s at random times as well. It started happening around 3 days ago. I’m responding to this thread because it sounds almost identical to what the wireless subwoofer popping noise the user was describing

Hi @Dfresh567,

Welcome, and thanks for making your first post here in the Roku Community.

We see that you're seeing the same issue going on. Could you tell us how long you have been using this device? Does the issue occur during streaming or even if the device is turned on? Is this happening every time, or is this a sporadic behavior? 

Tell us more about this so that we can further zoom in on it.

Thanks,

Rey

@RokuERey 

it’s happening while streaming only. I’ve had the two surround speakers for less than a year. I got the subwoofer and streambar pro last year for Xmas and bought the two other speakers a handful on months after.  It only happens when it’s playing something while streaming. Thanks for any help you can provide. Big Roku fan here

Thanks for the update, @Dfresh567!

In this case, we'll need to take a closer look into this. Please share with us the details below.

  • Roku device model, serial number, device ID, and software OS/version (these can all be found in Settings > System > About)
  • Tracker ID when this issue occurs (when you see this issue occur, press the Home button 5 times, followed by the Back button 5 times, and provide us with this ID).

Please keep us posted.

Thanks,

Rey
