So, here’s my experience. I ran discovery, and it found all of my speakers, but brought them in as generic “Samsung Wireless Audio” the same way it did when this driver was originally released. Previously, when I had done a discovery, it would bring in the generic name and another device with the name as it appears in the MultiRoom app.
I am able to control volume and play and pause although it doesn’t always know its current status the on off button does nothing
I have no voice control. It will NOT play my message over a speaker. It will knock it out of a group, however and stop it from playing.
Anyone else here have R1 (WAM1500) speakers with this driver fully working. Mine seems to only give me volume control which took a few tries deleting and readding to get it to work. Otherwise, the power option does nothing like the previous not edge driver did. I did notice that there is no more using the speaker for announcements though. And I also have 2 sound bars, a ms550 and ms750 and both had their old lan integration update to the edge driver but when I scan for new devices I automatically get some WAP-Tigger devices and I have no clue what they are and the no controls work for them.
My R1 stopped making announcments. I deleted my old device from Smartthings, factory reset the R1, added it to Multiroom. And I have tried everything I can and Smartthings will no longer discover the R1. It also doesn’t appear as a choice when you try to add manually. I think the 7/5 revision of the beta driver doesn’t support them.
My two R3 speakers have stopped working with Smartthings - they don’t announce anything for a while (maybe a week? Two?). After the event they just say “WiFi is ready”. Only the HW-MS650 bar announces messages. I thought I was the only one with this problem, but it turns out I’m not. What’s going on? Is this related to the recent connectivity problems with these speakers? Or is the problem due to the driver and cloud shutdown?
My M3 and M5 speakers suddenly stopped making ST voice notifications a few weeks ago. I am not a ST internals guy – lots of software experience but not with ST and I have better things to do with my time. I expect stuff like this to work. When I delete the devices and rediscover them, the device name and device profile on the Advanced Devices tab both show up as “samsung-audio”. I would assume this is correct, but they still don’t work for ST voice notifications. I can use them with Multiroom without difficulty so I know they can be reached and used. Any suggestions?
My r6 speaker stopped announcing voice notifications. removed an added in ST but still no voice notifications. speaker works fine via multi-room app. Is there a fix? An expensive paper weight at the mo
If you are still using the Multiroom Hub you need to have a look at that - they changed how that device worked years ago, and it became the equilibrium of a 5Ghz wireless router, but only one with a fixed password (therefore very insecure). Also, because it’s just a 5Ghz router, you’ve probably already got one of those in your network now anyway (unless you’ve got a very old router, in which case that should be your first port of call!)
I got one free when I bought my TV, then got another from one of my Multiroom purchases. I haven’t checked to see if things are different now, but certainly those two were just as I described.
