Is tailscale running / logged in on those other devices? Does it auto detect the server like it did on the phone?

Tailscale creates a new virtual network, and anything you want to connect to the Jellyfin server needs to be in that Tailscale network. You need to hook up the Roku device to Tailscale. I have never owned one, so I can’t say anything about that. But maybe that’s what you should figure out next.

Last I checked, Roku doesn’t have a Tailscale app. So unless Tailscale is working on your router the TV can’t see the laptop’s Tailscale IP.
I have a similar setup, and Roku only works if I connect to Jellyfin with the LAN IP. If your laptop isn’t on the same LAN – wifi or ethernet – it won’t work.

Roku app might have issues with self-signed certificates.

On you server:
tcpdump -ni any tcp port <your server port>You will know if your traffic reaches your server and to what it has to respond to.
It feels like NAT issue to me. Or DNS :D

Firewall on your arch?

What do you mean any anywhere else? Other device like tv? Other network, but you mention it is working on your phone so I assume it is different network?

I think you might need to set up a device running tailscale as a subnet router so all devices on the local network become visible (printers, roku, jellyfin server, etc.)

I’ve seen TV’s really aggressively closing background apps - on my friends android TV, it would close Tailscale very soon after switching apps. I had to disable that behavior in CLI.

“Anything else anywhere else”
Clarify - do you mean remote access? Are you using your phone for local access (eg localhost:8096 or 192.168.0.1:8096 or some kind of mDNS like arch.local:8096)? None of that will work outside of your home without additional configuration nor should you just openly expose it to the greater internet without doing much more research. Short version though - easy mode: tailscale or wireguard, harder version headscale but can be fully self hosted.
If this isn’t a remote access issue and it’s just some devices aren’t working locally (eg your phone and browser can connect but tv can’t) I would bet it’s a networking issue with firewall/router. What do logs say? This is one that can be trickier because logs on jellyfin side won’t necessarily have any useful info (they might if client is trying and failing to connect, worth a look) and logs on the other side might be a nightmare or even impossible to access (eg a smart tv and you don’t have a developer account for apple/android/webos)
