Have had Sonos one for over a year. It keeps cutting out such that we have given up using it.  We use Amazon Alexa.

Hi there @Sbs8dtj, Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the community, and thanks for sending a diagnostic report of your Sonos system, upon checking, it shows that it's only a controller diagnostic, So I can’t see the current status of the speakers, most likely, it’s not connected to the network. kindly unplug it from the power source for 1-2 minutes, and replug it back in, and try to resend a submit a diagnostic and respond with the confirmation number. This way we can identify the cause. Thanks.

Let us know what you have in mind with the advice above.

Hello there @Sbs8dtj, thanks for the update and for sending a diagnostic report of your Sonos system. Upon checking the diagnostic report. It shows all normal on your Sonos system. I’ll ask some questions to check further.

  • When did it start happening?
  • Is it affecting all Music services? All songs or randomly happening?
  • Does it happen mostly when using Alexa or it doesn’t matter?
  • Have you tried to power cycle or unplug the speaker for 1-2 minutes from the power source? Because it shows on the previous attempt to send a diagnostic that it’s not connected properly to the network.

Let us know what you have in mind with the advice above.
