iOS 14 Can No Longer See AirPort Express in AirPlay Device List

Since updating to iOS 14. 4 I can no longer see my AirPort Express that is joined to my main wireless network (it's not an extension of the main network nor a separate network). The Airport Express was used to stream music to my SONOS speakers via the audio out cable. The AirPort Express would show up in the list of available AirPlay devices. Now only the AppleTV shows up in the list. Is there a solution to this issue? Thanks in advance!

Try to reinstall 14.4.2 if possible and then power off and restart the entire network.....all devices. You may need to Erase All Content and Settings on the iOS device and then restore it from a backup.


If you are still having problems, you have an iOS issue, not an AirPort issue. Nothing changed on the AirPort. Please post over in the iOS support forum linked below for more help.

Not an AirPort Express issue......(nothing changed on the AirPort Express).....it is an iOS issue. Welcome to the iOS 14.4 club, where Apple broke things that were working fine before. Not all users are affected of course, but we have seen any number of posts about this issue. There are no sure fire solutions.


So that we don't waste your time asking you to perform troubleshooting steps that you have already done, could you please list the actions that you have already tried?
