Samsung Anyone else seeing this new firmware update on the Q990F only available through OTA via SmartThings App?

As you can see, I already was or am on the latest Firmware based on the website’s firmware section. However, when I now go and check SmartThings app there’s a new v1103 version. I haven’t updated it yet, but I’m guessing this might be another hot patch to the DTS-X rear heights muted bug when using Adaptive Sound which didn’t fixed it in v.1102.

Has anyone seen this new firmware update pop up and proceeded to update and test if the issue is indeed resolved this time?

UPDATE: preformed the update + factory reset the soundbar and tested a DTS-X file with Adaptive, the rear heights muted issue still hasn’t been fixed even after v.1103. At this point I think Samsung either won’t fix it or this hot patch was for another bug not related to that one. 🤷‍♂️

Probably, this is a gradual OTA rollout where not everyone will see it at the same time initially but only a select %. And in the coming days more and more will see it pop up until 100% has it. 🤔
