I wonder if anyone experience the same problem. Scenario: My M5 is started in the morning using the timer. A bit later I go down to the kitchen and tap on my BS1 GVA. By that I join the source on the M5. After that I may add M3 in my bathroom and/or M3 in my office. When I later leave the house I close all devices by using the B&O app, shutting all devices to standby. Problem: When I come home, I then tap my BS1 GVA and expect that to play from its own source. It does not. It starts playing from the M5, and the link symbol is shown in the app. Sometime the BS1 does not play at all, and I have to use the app to start the play. It appear as the “master” does not release the “slave”. Its the same if I use M3 as the Master. Anyone else see this behavior? I think this started with the latest ASE platform update.

Did you change these settings recently? Have a look here. MM

Hiort, your right! All my devices do show this behaviour after a minor updates. For example: yesterday evening I played the BG400o on my Shape connected to a BLC. If I give a play command on the Shape today (white triangle on the black player ribbon) it starts the last played source, the BG4000. It works with all sources this way now: so also BLC connected sources. But for some, to me unknown reason, some sources are more persistent then others. On a strange way the “a.tape7000” starts unexpectedly. I’m still figuring out, how the system exactly reacts.

The behavior you describe means B&O are trying to emulate the classic interface with new software and firmware, and have not considered all the edge cases. Report this behavior as a bug.

Agree. I have reported to B&O support. Lets see what they say.

Is this a bug? After some thoughts I would say not. If you set the BLC “Primary” connected to your BS1, the ML sources connected to the BLC becoming sources of the BS1. So when you start the BS1. it starts with the latest played source. Thus not a bug but a choice how the system should react. You could skip setting the BLC as primary on the BS1 and add the BLC separately to the B&o app. Open the B&o app, chose the BLC and select the ML source to be played. Then join the BS1 and/or M5

Thanks for your input Caropla, but there is no BLC or ML involved in my setup.
