Ethernet and Mesh

Hi
I have a Sonos Amp Connect and Sonos5, both are connected by cable to a router. I recently added a Mesh network (TP LINK Deco 5) that is connected to the router and defined a separate Wifi network (with a different name then the one I have on the router). Since I added the Mesh network, my iPhone’s Sonos app can’t find Sonos on the network. My phone is on the new Mesh WiFi network. I used the app to put Sonos on that same new network and then I do see it on the app but after a few ministers the Sonos components switch back to the old WiFi network (maybe it is because it is connected by cable to the original router?). Anyway, I would like Sonos to be connected by cable but still use the new Mesh network. I’m lost.... Hope I was able to define the problem clear enough... Thoughts?

Put the Deco into bridge (access point) mode.
