Surface Go won't screen mirror to Roku SS+

I recently purchased a new Surface Go.  I can't get it to screen mirror to any of the 4 ROKU Streaming Stick+ devices I have in the house. All ROKU firmware is up to date, all Surface software is up to date (insofar as Windows Update thinks it is at least).  I have a Dell laptop running Win10 that connects to the ROKUs just fine, but the Surface won't.  When I choose Connect from the action center I see all the streaming sticks, but if I try to connect to any it just says "Connecting to your device" and spins. No connection is ever established and after a bit it times out with the message "Couldn't connect".  I've tried researching and done everything I can find, including turning off Bluetooth.  Nothing works.  Any help appreciated.

Hi Smonty99 ,

Thank you for sharing your experience here in Microsoft Community.

May we ask for your help to answer the following questions?

1. Is Roku SS+ a type of wireless display adapter?
2. Is it connected to via external monitor or directly connected to the Wi-Fi network?
3. How does it work when your Dell is connected?

Please keep us posted. Thank you!

Best regards,

Roku Streaming Stick+ is a streaming media player. Plugs into the HDMI port of your TV, connects to your home Wifi network, and allows you to stream Hulu, Sling, etc.  The Roku has the ability to also accept screen mirroring/projecting (Miracast) streams from other devices on the Wifi network.  My Dell laptop, can project to the Rokus just fine, so screen mirroring works on the Rokus.  My Surface Go dis unable to establish a connection however.

Hi Smonty99 ,

Thank you for the detailed information. I am assuming that your Surface Go is connected to your Wi-Fi network without issues. I am wondering if it has something to do with the compatibility or the network chip of the Surface. We are currently investigating and trying to reproduce the issue.

In the meantime please try to clear the hardware's cache by pressing and holding the power button and volume up button simultaneously for 15 seconds. This will boot to the UEFI page, you can click Exit setup and restart the Surface.

You may also download and run the Surface Diagnostic Tool Kit. This will help fix potential issues on the device and make sure your device is up to date.
