Two homepod mini (ios15) cannot be played simultaneously when using the tuneblade software on the computer

[2843...@qq.com]

About homepod mini (ios15) when using the tuneblade software on the computer, the following problems occur:

When two homepod minis turn on the play button at the same time, at present, only one can have sound on the computer, and the other has no sound. Before ios5, it can play stereo at the same time. Does this need to be adapted to ios15, or is there another solution

Yep, same here. I bought the license 2 weeks ago and after upgrading to iOS 15:

-  two *not paired* HomePod Mini play *mono-sound*.

- with *paired* HomePod Mini, only *one of them plays*.  

I sent email to the TuneBlade support, but no response so far.

Thank you all for reporting this issue. 

We'll have this tested shortly. 

Thank you for your patience.

Oh I just changed my GPU from Nvidia RTX3090 to AMD 6900XT and this started happening so I thought it was because of my GPU, but I guess the latest iOS 15 coincided with my GPU swapping time....I'm having the same issue with HomePod. It's either one or the other, and sometimes Error occurs, the volume gets erratic, and I have to manually stop one or the other. 

I really miss the stereo feature because the sound is so great. Please bring this back...

Also, is there any way you can support this on Mac OS too? Mac OS already has a stereo feature but if I play a different app (non-Apple app) - i.e. World of Warcraft - the audio lag is so bad, like 3-4 seconds. TuneBlade is almost instance so I would love to use TuneBlade for non-Apple apps in Mac OS if possible.

Same issue here.Pls fix the problem

same issue

Hello, it has been half a month. At present, there is still no solution to this problem. Is there any progress,

[Phunky Dungh]

yes, same issue here. it was working just fine before upgrading to ios15. the only way to make it work is to unpair the two home pods for non stereo pair. i also sent an email to TuneBlade support with no response. it's very frustrating to listen when left and right channel keeps going in and out and not playing at the same time.

Any news? I just ordered second homepod and now read this eh ... sadly my connection is more stable when using tuneblade than airplay lol

same here, interestingly, the iTunes on Windows used to support stero playback before software 15. Now the offical streaming software iTunes has the same issue too!

Same issue here - trial user with HomePod Mini stereo pair.

The 2  HomePod Mini's are paired, upgraded to newest version 26/10 (15.x) and work fine with Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, MacOS 12) but not with TuneBlade.

TuneBlade are seeing the devices as single and not paired. Streaming to a single one appears to fine stable and well from any tested application source.

However, streaming to both (as single devices fail spectacularly) - they keep dropping connecting back and forth between the devices - a real mess - and pity.

I have 5 more HomePod Mini's coming my way and was hoping to be able to use a new stereo pair with Win10, so hope it gets fixed.

Once fixed, I'll definitely be getting a license - this software fills a much needed empty space left by Apple - and Apple will never fill it, so hope the developer keeps up on the development.

The issue is also with macOS program called "AirFoil" not sure if it was possible before to stream to stereo-paired homepods but right now it detects just separate devices.

unpain homepod with iphone "Home" app, and two speak works with iTunes, TuneBlade.

but I am not sure it is real stereo, since you now can adjust each homepod's volume.

It seems a bug from iOS15, wait for solution...

I have version 15.6 on my Homepod Minis but stereo does not work. Any hints on what to do? Just downloaded the free TuneBlade version just to see if stereo worked, since I tried other apps that also couldn't handle stereo. Any news?

[Ricky Helgesson]

Oh, it does seem to work now with my HomePod Mini OS on 15.6. I just misunderstood the UI of the app - didn't realize that I had to select both speakers in my stereo pair.
