Roku mobile app

Let me start with: It looks like this same topic has already been posted, per what I can see on Google, but for some reason, I'm being denied access to see it and it doesn't appear on searches within the Roku Community - https://community.roku.com/t5/Archived-Content/Private-Listening-constantly-disconnecting-then-recon...

Lately, my headphones and private listening continually disconnect for about 5 seconds and then reconnect, cycling over and over. I know it's not my Wi-Fi because it only happens while the app is the active app on my phone. If I move to another app (but don't close my so and stay connected to private listening), it stays connected. It happens again if I go back to the app, like to use the remote to change shows, rewind, etc. There also no other devices trying to connect. I've restarted the app and my phone since this issue began.

My device is a Roku TCL TV, and my phone is a Samsung s10e.

I had a similar issue and it seems to have been connected to the app going into deep sleep after not being used for a bit. I had to go into the settings and activate the app. And I would also double check that any features that would block the app from running in the background are turned off. Or turn on any features that keep the app running in the background. The presence of the "now playing" notification is a good indication of whether or not the app is running.
