Description
[Description of the bug]
I can't get the list of open rooms on Netplay. There is simply no return from online rooms, only when on LAN.
I checked what was possible but without success. I disabled lobby options such as only password and rooms connectable only, without success.
[What you expected to happen]
Get the list of rooms open by Netplay so I can connect.
[What is actually happening]
Nothing happens. Simply no rooms are shown. Even disabling the options "only password rooms" and "only connectable rooms.
[Try to bisect and tell us when this started happening]
It happened in versions 1.16 to 1.18 but apparently it fixed itself.
- RetroArch: [1.19.1]
Environment information
- OS: [Linux Ubuntu 22.04 via flapak]
Thank you.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the missing Netplay room list on RetroArch 1.19.1 under Linux Ubuntu 22.04 via Flatpak, including with the password-only and connectable-only options disabled. Trace the Netplay host-list refresh behavior; done means open internet rooms appear, not only LAN rooms.
