TC8 stuck at Checking for Room Controller

After the Poly X50 updated to software release 3.14, the TC8 is stuck at "Successfully paired with Collaboration Area. Checking for Room Controller. Please wait..." Attempting to use it with Microsoft teams. Rebooting the X50 and TC8 does not help but downgrading to 3.13 seems to fix the issue. Is anyone else seeing this issue with software release 3.14 and Teams?

Re: TC8 stuck at Checking for Room Controller

Hello @nlev ,

 

Welcome to the Poly Community.

 

Looking at the details provided:

 

  • We have absolutely no idea about the currently used Teams Application version
  • We also assume the initial pairing between the Studio X and the TC8 is working fine

 

Based on the above please work with our friends from Microsoft support to troubleshoot this.


Please ensure to provide some feedback if this reply has helped you so other users can profit from your experience.

Re: TC8 stuck at Checking for Room Controller

Thanks for your response. It seems related to the Poly software revision, not the Teams application version. Yes, the touch panel is paired ok. I'll mention the information you provided in my support case.

Hello @BFAV ,

 

Welcome to the Poly Community.

 

At present, I believe only a downgrade to 3.13 fixes the issue but in parallel please escalate to our support organization and quote the ticket I provided to @nlev

Re: TC8 stuck at Checking for Room Controller

Thanks for the update. I can confirm that setting the x50 to downgrade to 3.13 using Poly Lens worked around the issue. The TC8 touch panel is functioning again. I have a case open referencing the internal issue. Let me know if you hear any new information on this issue so I know when it's safe to enable updates again.

Re: TC8 stuck at Checking for Room Controller

Exact same issue with the TC8 stuck checking for room controller.  Downgrading to 3.13 fixes it.  I can reproduce it on my Studio X30 and X50s.

 

Thanks god for Lens.

Re: TC8 stuck at Checking for Room Controller

Hello @swinterstorcon , @nlev  and @BFAV ,

 

Workaround: 

  1. Downgrade to PolyOS v3.13.0

Or

  1. Change time zone in Web UI to one from a city where the Olson ID time zone string does not include the underscore _ , and reboot/power cycle TC8.  The table below lists the impacted time zones 

 

Impacted time zones in 3.14.0-372034

Olson ID

WebUI

America/Los_Angeles

GMT-8:00 Pacific Time (US & Canada)

America/New_York

GMT-5:00 Eastern Time (US & Canada)

America/La_Paz

GMT-4:00 La Paz

America/Sao_Paulo

GMT-3:00 Brasilia

Atlantic/Cape_Verde

GMT-1:00 Cape Verde Is.

Africa/Dar_es_Salaam

GMT+3:00 Tanzania

Asia/Hong_Kong

GMT+8:00 Beijing, Chongqing, Hong Kong

Australia/Lord_Howe

This affects Microsoft Teams or RIngCentral

Re: TC8 stuck at Checking for Room Controller

I can confirm that fixes it for us.  I changed our Time Zone from New York to Bogata since it's the same -5GMT, upgraded and the TC8 connected like normal.

So is this a Poly bug or a Microsoft bug?
