Manufacturer-documented Reviewed 2026-11-09 · Revision 1
Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
The source is using Bluetooth audio; the missing item is the control app connection.
Connection scope: Bluetooth. Symptom: The control app cannot find my device.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at step-0. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
step-0
Does ordinary Bluetooth media already work?
This guide addresses control access rather than failed audio pairing.
Look for: Confirm the stated prerequisite or observation; unknown is not a fault diagnosis.
- If Yes / this check is completed → Has soundbar network setup already been completed?
- If No / this cannot be confirmed → Keep the observation for manufacturer support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required observation is unknown

step-1
Has soundbar network setup already been completed?
BLE initial setup and subsequent same-network app control are different from Bluetooth music. Unknown network state needs the official setup instructions.
Look for: Confirm the stated prerequisite or observation; unknown is not a fault diagnosis.
- If Yes / this check is completed → Are phone and soundbar on the same network?
- If No / this cannot be confirmed → Keep the observation for manufacturer support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required observation is unknown

step-2
Are phone and soundbar on the same network?
Do not reset the router or delete pairings to guess this prerequisite.
Look for: Confirm the stated prerequisite or observation; unknown is not a fault diagnosis.
- If Yes / this check is completed → Open the exact soundbar in Smart Control
- If No / this cannot be confirmed → Keep the observation for manufacturer support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required observation is unknown

step-3
Open the exact soundbar in Smart Control
Use the actual recognised model and inspect whether its controls appear; no new network password or account data is entered into Audio Fix.
Look for: Perform only the stated check, then confirm whether it could be completed.
- If Yes / this check is completed → Checks completed — report your outcome
- If No / this cannot be confirmed → Keep the observation for manufacturer support
