May I ask why you need to factory reset it ... not always a good idea.

Why is this not a good idea? Seemed to help my Sonos one and I was having issues. Now I need to factory reset them again before I return them to wipe any personal data.
A factory reset wipes out all the information stored in the system meaning you need to put it all back in again, this is rarely necessary to fix a problem and can make finding out what is wrong more difficult.
Doing a factory reset before selling or returning a system is the one time it is a good idea and not a last resort.

Thanks Chris, My Apple Homekit could not connect to my second Sonos One after I separated it from a stereo pair. I read somewhere that this had to do with the owner account that the original Homekit setup was made with. My Apple account goes back to @mac.com and the registration defaults to this; I had used one of the later Apple domains when I first registered. Interestingly this did not effect my first Sonos One, so I decided it was quicker to treat the symptom as a glitch. The re-set was easy, and I was able to use exactly the same name that was assigned before the re-set for all services with relative ease (Sonos, Homekit and Alexa).
