If you're using Roon on a Mac, the chances of getting a AIR to behave are slim I suspect. I'm using Roon on a Win 10 PC and AIR does work for me in exclusive mode. I was having occasional BSODs on the PC running AIR when AIR was in use, but that seems to have gone away since Expert firmware 9.01 (or perhaps a Win 10 update - don't know for sure).
However, the other AIR pain-in-the-ass is just keeping AIR enabled and working. Any change in my Devialet source - even letting it go into standby - shuts down AIR on my PC and requires a revisit to the PC running AIR to re-enable it. It's just a cumbersome two-step dance that seems more trouble than it's worth. But, when it works, it does sound pretty damn good.
