I tried to use my Roku Soundbar today after having successfully used it during the recent SAG Awards. I have changed NOTHING on the TV, Soundbar, or internet settings and all of a sudden go a “no video signal” message on the TV. FYI I do not have cable TV, so without the Roku Soundbar I can’t watch anything on the TV. I did some sleuthing and unplugged/replugged everything, restarted my internet, and attempted to do a reset of the Soundbar by holding the reset button for 15-30 seconds. After that, I still get the “no video signal” message AND also the orange light on the Soundbar continuously flashes, never stopping. So now I have unplugged it and do not know what to do to try to fix this. How does it go from working a few weeks ago and all of a sudden it doesn’t work when I have done nothing to change anything on my end? Was there a system update that killed it? Thanks for any help you can provide. The Soundbar isn’t that old (2023) so it’s concerning if it has just mysteriously stopped working.

Hi! @LoriB11
Thanks for bringing this to us!
We totally get why you're concerned about your Roku Soundbar showing "No Video Signal." This usually means there might be a hiccup with the picture connection. First, double-check that the HDMI cable is firmly plugged into your TV. If that doesn't work, try switching it to another HDMI port. And don’t forget to press the Input/Source button on your TV remote to select the right source. If that doesn't work, try replacing the HDMI cable if you have a spare.
Let me know if this helps. Cheers!

Re: Roku Soundbar has “no video signal” and after reset flashing orange light doesn’t stop flashing
Hi and thanks for your suggestions - much appreciated. I tried everything you suggested and more. Long story short, the same soundbar and HDMI cable works just fine on another TV I have. I tested on the original TV with a new HDMI cable and still the same “no video signal” message. It appears that the HDMI input on the TV is loose - when you plug the HDMI cable into it, it cannot make a tight fit. Seems like it’s a problem with the TV then and not the Roku. Thanks again - I will enjoy the soundbar on the other TV for the time being.
