Updated my dock to the latest firmware today. It worked fine until I restarted my deck to try and resolve some game streaming issues. After restarting the deck, the dock no longer works. When it is first connected to power, the ethernet lights strobe then go dark. Ethernet isn’t being detected by the deck and neither is the HDMI connection, but it still passes power on to the deck. Anyone else have any issues with this after the latest update?

    Yes. Every reboot seems like a lottery. Hdmi, hdmi audio or USB connected peripherals might not work.

    If something is missing, disconnecting dock power and deck connection for a moment and you’ll get a reroll and everything might work.

      Good to know I’m not the only one. Since updating the dock, HDMI out to my TV doesn’t work from time to time. I thought it was related to the new HDR settings, but apparently not.

      I tried that several times, but unfortunately it is 100% dead. I tried pulling power probably 10+ times, but same result every time. Ethernet strobes then goes dark, and only power pass through works.

        My problems aren’t necessarily caused by the dock firmware.

        I used a cheap dongle I bought from a local supermarket a year ago to connect to my living room TV. It had worked fine in the past, but now I had to boot the deck 4 times to get clean picture and audio.

        Culprit is definitely the Steam OS update 3.5.5.

        I updated the dock firmware right after that update. It actually failed two times and it only worked after I connected the dock with wire directly instead of decks wifi.
