Hi Mary, I followed your suggestion and set Audio to Stereo vs Automatic. It didn’t work. The problem persists.
Hi @RKG1,
Thanks for following up.
We'd like to gather more information about the issue you're running into. How is your Roku device connected to your TV? When did this issue first start occurring? In addition, have you tried pressing the * on the remote, going down to audio, and turning leveling off?
Please keep us posted and we'll continue assisting you from there.

Hi Mary,
‘The ROKU is connected to the TV using the provided cable directly into the HDMI port.
This problem , as best I can recall, has been going on since November, maybe before.
I’ve never used the Leveling feature so it’s off.
Could it be the Menu Volume.I’ve tried High and Medium. Haven’t yet tried Low or Off? I’ll try Off next.

Hi Mary,
The units continue to blare volume and need to be adjusted by shutdown and reset.
The unit serial numbers are C338F862540 and C3388O137220. They are used on two different TV's. One a Samsung. the other an Olevia.
is it possible that this is a cable ploy to force me to buy their Digital Adapters? the cable is provided by Comcast
