M5 loosing connection with Essence remote again

3 replies
The old problem appear to have come back...

Since latest update of the M5 end of March,

I experience that the remote loose connection.

I have to power cycle, and remove and pair again.

Anyone else having similar problems?

Sometimes yes. We have to tap the top of the M5 to start it. Once started the essence remote controls the volume.

Happens probably once a month

I have the same problem with my beosound 35. Since the last update sometimes it is not possible to star music with the essence app. In the display appears Standby. Only a restart of the beosound 35 solves the problem. 

This is another perfect update from bang and Olufsen. Thank you very much. No comment...
