Xfinity stream app sound issues

I use roku streaming stick+ on 3 tv's. On one tv the sound drops very low or goes silent, on another tv it goes very loud or sounds robotic with weird sounds over it. The third tv also drops volume. I can fix it by changing channels and then going back to what I was watching. I have checked for updates, uninstalled, reinstalled and restarted roku. This only happens on Xfinity stream app Netflix Hulu etc is fine.

I also have aan issue sometimes with changing channels. Instead of going to the station it goes back to the roku home page where all apps are shown. These problems didn't happen in the beta version.

There are at least 2 dozen that are having the same issue with the sound. We think the app should be rolled back because the new version released on 10/26 is when and what caused it

We're having the same problem!!! As is my sister and her family, and several friends! Before we realized it was the streaming app, thinking the issue was with the speakers, we even took one of our TV's in for repairs! When we called Xfinity to report the problem, the only answer we received was that we needed to change to a box. Maybe, this is a good reason to begin looking at changing providers! Fort Wayne, IN.

@XfinityBillie Look at all of the people complaining about this problem. I just came here for the first time today, because I am getting tired of it. Xfinity employees need to quit trying to insinuate everyone's Roku devise is the problem - IT IS NOT. It is an Xfinity problem, please correct it or roll back the app to a previous version. In addition to the sound problem the audio keep getting to of sync to the video.

Please fix the volume issue! I have 3 televisions with Roku setups and all 3 experience erratic volume issues at various times using Xfinity stream. This was never an issue when the app was still in Beta form. Now at indeterminate intervals the volume will either spike obnoxiously high, drop exceptionally low or just become garbled nonsense. I have found that changing the channel in the app corrects the issue. I simply channel up, then channel back down and the volume is correct again. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!

Same issue for us. Just happened again as I am writing this. Usually happens a couple times an evening. Hopefully you can get a fix, or simply roll back to Xfinity stream beta edition.

Hi @user_eda4d9. Please uninstall the app and reinstall. Also, logging in and out will force any updates there may be.

Same as all other posts -

It is not an issue with Roku or TV. It’s an xfinity stream app issue and it needs to be fixed asap!! We are sick of the tv volume going silent, going out of sync with picture, going so loud it sounds like the television speaker is going to blow. You have to go in and out of the program in order to temporarily fix it .. but it will continue to do it until you close out of xfinity stream and use another streaming app. All other streaming apps volume do not present any issues. Many many of us are having same problems .. please fix or you will be forcing us to leave xfinity completely!

It does not help to contact. Same old response always the Roku. Never had this issue until Xfinity did their supposedly update that promised better streaming instead has created a lot of frustration and very unhappy customers. Time for Xfinity to own the issue and fix it!
