Wireless speakers popping

Jump to solution

I've searched for solutions and have tried every suggestion to resolve the issue, but none have worked for me. I have four wireless speakers connected to a Streambar Pro (9101R2 serial YL00G9298859), and after the most recent update (12.5.0 build 4175-95), I've had continuous popping in all four wireless speakers. I did not have this issue prior to the recent update. I've unplugged, reset, and factory reset each speaker. I've even factory reset the Streambar Pro and made sure everything is up to date. I've been tolerating the popping and have finally thought to post my complaint.

Any solution that'll fix my issue will be much appreciated!

Not only are all of my wireless speakers popping, the audio continuously cuts out, distorted and makes static-y sounds now. Ever since the update back in December, I have tirelessly factory reset the wireless speakers and the Roku Streambar Pro. I've unplugged everything and done everything recommended as a solution.

It's been nearly four months, and I am giving up on being a Roku user. I've had multiple issues with multiple channels, including the Roku Channel itself.

Contact me when there is a fix for your products because they are seriously not sufficient enough to satisfy my needs! I'll likely end up selling it all seeing as there hasn't been a fix, merely so I can get at least some money back.

Edit: What's sad is the issues I've had others have reported has gone back for about five years now. These wireless speakers will work for about a month (give or take) then there's nothing but issues with them. Unplugging and factory resetting only to have the issues immediately setting it all back up is not a good product. I've not changed any cables or are any wires damaged. My speakers are about 10 feet from the Streambar Pro and my Streambar Pro receives excellent internet connection seeing as my router is not five feet from it. I hope no one else purchases these scam products, seeing as every update doesn't fix these issues.

@RokuJohnB Everything in the support article you posted is everything I had stated in my prior post. The speakers popping had occurred constantly after the latest update. I had unplugged all speakers, reset all speakers, factory reset all speakers, restarted the Streambar Pro, updated to the latest software, and everything I could possibly do on my end... (sighs) Nothing fixed the issue. I've tried every step multiple times and the speakers continue to pop. Prior to the latest update, I did not have any issues whatsoever. I do not fully comprehend this issue... Wish I could roll back to the previous update.

I unplugged all speakers and Streambar Pro overnight. After about an hour plugging in everything the popping is still there but not occurring as often. I checked multiple channels and it's the same for it all. It'll be perfect then will randomly pop. It's sometimes one speaker then it's a different speaker.

I decided to do another factory reset for everything. I also switched my speakers by moving the rear left with the front left, the front left with the front right, and so forth moving clockwise. And the popping has continued to occur, unfortunately. 

It's saddening that this has been occurring ever since the last Streambar Pro update, I've had these speakers for a while too. I hope there will be a fix to this issue very soon, it has become unbearable to watch anything with the continuous popping.
