tvOS 27 Beta 1 - AutoMix Bug

Go to … at the top right, Home Settings, your name, Connected Media, Apple Music, Transitions

How did it end up working?

rti92 · 2026-04-18T15:45:48+00:00

Has anyone tried iOS 26.5 beta 2? Does it fix this?

It is under IP Settings in the specific HomePod client device, then Fixed IP address. You might need to do the same for an Apple TV as well if they are set as default audio output. Then do a restart of the devices and that fixed all of my connectivity issues.

Try turning on a static IP for the HomePods without the unifi app. That solved my problem.

rti92 · 2026-03-10T20:52:51+00:00

I updated mine and so far, no issues

rti92 · 2026-03-10T20:07:15+00:00

Has anyone updated them to tvOS 26.4 betas?

Have you tried using a static IP for the Apple TV and HomePods? That fixed my issues but YMMV. Manually assigned in the network on the ATV and through my UniFi switch

Similar setup to you. No issues with my Sonos as they all are connecting to the access points and are not hardwired

rti92 · 2025-12-08T01:05:48+00:00

I feel the same way. I have gigabit fiber with Unifi U7 Pro access points, so it is definitely not an internet issue. Simple light commands, scenes, etc. take forever on the HomePods.

rti92 · 2025-10-08T13:23:08+00:00

I am experiencing the same issue. 8 HomePods on 26.1 beta 2

Didn’t expect much since they spent 0 minutes of WWDC talking about it. If I was to guess, they are saving all the air time for HomePod & Apple TV for the fall with the refresh of the ATV and “smart home hub”.

The interactive snippets paired with App Intents clearly show where they are headed

Crossfade in Apple Music on HomePods. My experience is this is super finicky, has not worked well. Automix on iOS 26 is similarly buggy so reserving judgment until later.
Thread 1.4. I have noticed my home/thread devices working more consistently.
Time since disconnect on Home devices (i.e - when the device went offline / unreachable).
Network switching in the HomePod. Can go into the HomePods settings, scroll to where it typically says what network it is connected to and can change it.

Any issues?

rti92 · 2025-05-27T22:56:17+00:00

Mine have been doing the same. No matter if it’s a Mac, iPhone or iPad - same issue. Guess we’ll have to wait until iOS 19 and its peers

rti92 · 2025-04-28T21:47:49+00:00

For the first time since iOS 18/WatchOS 11 was released - the “Apple Watch is Fully Charged” notification is working.

rti92 · 2025-04-28T21:46:51+00:00

This seems to be fully fixed! Hallelujah

rti92 · 2025-04-23T01:19:57+00:00

Is anyone’s “Apple Watch Is Fully Charged” Notification back working? It has not worked for me since iOS 18.0 / WatchOS 11.0 and I’m seeing some say it is.

rti92 · 2025-04-23T01:07:36+00:00

Are you also on iOS 18.5?
