Adjust for Daylight Saving Setting Not Working Correctly

Hello,

I live in British Columbia where we recently stopped the semi-annual time change - we are now permanently in Daylight Saving Time. 

I turned off the Adjust for Daylight Saving Time settings so that my system no longer changes, but then my alarms started going off an hour late. The time zone is correct, although it says GMT-8 when we are actually GMT-7. 

I turned the setting back on, and the alarms are now going off at the right time. But I’m concerned that with the setting enabled, my alarms will go off an hour early in November after the time changes again for those regions that still observe the time change. 

Is there a fix for this? It seems like a bug.

Probably worth sending a diagnostic and calling Sonos support to get this into their problems list.

A forum admin might tag it but a call with diagnostics is likely going to get more attention.

Hi Stanley_4,

 

Thanks for your reply. I actually did all that, which is how I discovered that it was the “Adjust…” setting that was causing the issue with the alarms going off at the wrong time. 

I did suggest that this might need a bug fix and the response was basically “yeah, maybe there will be an update that fixes it”. So I’m not too hopeful that my suggestion will go anywhere.

The first line guys don't get a lot of feedback but if it is in the system it will be looked at.
