Perhaps there is the same setting somewhere within retroarch.
Indeed there is. Under Settings -> User -> Username (it sets the "netplay_nickname" in
retroarch.cfg). With this matching the hostname I can start the netplay host from retroarch menu.
It is a peculiar thing, I remember it working without configuration, I had a hostname so I don't really understand it.
Same here. I used to have a netplay nickname different from the hostname, and it didn't matter. Weird.
