Hi, I have a zepplin air which sounds fantatice, when it works... when it doesn't it's a real paint.

Two distinct problems, either the Zepplin isn't in the list of output devices under preferences->soiund

Or if it is, when I select it, it just jumps directly back to internal speakers under system prefs=>sound.

For the first problem, I have to turn the Zep totally off and restart it and after about 5 minutes it shows up again. The second problem has only been fixed by rebooting the Mac.

Needles to say I am NOT one happy camper with this going on.
I have flawless wireless network, but to be sure, I have actually now plugged it all into wireless as I cabled the whole house up with cat5E when wireless was pretty flaky.. but now I've got N wireless in the house as well and nothing else EVER drops off it.

So, do I pack it all up and take it back to the Apple store, where it will probably work as this only happens after some period of time which may be up to a week, as I tend to mostly want to listen to things around the weekend.

Going to seriously need this fixed = love the sound of the Zep, but Sonus is very nice as well - don't like the sound, but the controllers seem to all work flawlessly and I can choose what ever speakers I would like to plug that into. If on the other hand I get this sorted, I would get a couple more to dot round the house as I do love that base - best I've ever heard from a single unit.

Any suggestions or similar experiences shared would be appreciated.

Bill
