Re: No sound unless I power cycle Roku TV

I am having the same issues with the roku phillips tv. Everything is wifi no cables but the power into the outlet. So what would be the issue then Rokus software sucks?

Re: No sound unless I power cycle Roku TV

I am currently testing a theory.  It appears that if I back out of the app in use (ex Netflix or plex) then power down from the home screen the audio doesn't error out.

I haven't had a long enough testing time yet (only three days) but it appears to not fail if shut down this way.

Thank you for posting here in the Roku Community.

We regret hearing it from all of you regarding no sound unless you restart your Roku TV.

  • Roku device model, serial number, device ID, and software OS/version (these can all be found in Settings > System > About)
  • does this issue occur on a specific channel? if so, what channel and what version/build is the channel (this can be found by selecting the channel on the Home screen and pressing the * button)
  • tracker ID when this issue occurs (when you see this issue occur, press the Home button five times, followed by the Back button five times, and provide us with this ID)

Re: No sound unless I power cycle TV

I have the same issue. My TV is only a year or so old. It has no sound about 75% of the time. I have to restart it or turn it off by unplugging it to get it to work again. It's some kind of defect in their tvs. I have a 32 inch TV. Nothing else hooked upto it. I feel your frustration 🫤.

Re: No sound unless I power cycle Roku TV

My Roku tv says system is "up to date" but I have no sound when powering on the TV. I have to unplug it every time (at least once - sometimes more) to get any sound. No additional cords or speakers. What's the deal?
