Hey people.

Im having a problem with my Apple TV 4K, the problem is that I set up everything perfectly, and everything worked flawless, Iā€™m using 2 Sonos 1 gen2 as tv speakers, and Iā€™m used to start up the Apple TV and my tv, then open the airplay setup, and change from tv speakers to sonos speakers, which are set up as a room, but after 2 days, my sonos setup doesnā€™t show up in the AirPlay menu anymorešŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø I canā€™t choose anything in there besides my lousy tv speakers.Ā 
Does anyone in here have a solution on that, itā€™s really making me think if this will ever work, Iā€™ve tried to delete the app, reset the speakers and so on, but it doesnā€™t last for more than a day or two, and they are missing againšŸ˜¢ Heeeellllppp.

Here are some of the usual suggestions from Apple that may help to fix Airplay connections, so perhaps try these:

  • Reboot the router
  • Restart all devices and try to AirPlay again
  • Toggle off Bluetooth on the sending device, or if already off, try turning it on
  • Disconnect the sending device from any other Bluetooth devices (like speakers)
  • Ensure all are Connected to the same WiFi network
  • Reset your network settings on your iDevice
  • Update iOS, and speaker firmware/software
  • Move your devices away from other electronics

    IĀ“ll try everything once more today, IĀ“ve already tried 90% of what you're writing, but one thing I haven't tried is to move my sonos, they stand just behind the tv and close to the Apple TV.Ā 

    Ā Hopefully this will be a longterm solution, IĀ“ll be backĀ ;)

      I did everything as described, but a day later the problem was back, so I did start everything up from scratch everyday, until a week ago, when I moved the speakers longer away from my tv and Apple TV, and everything has worked ever since šŸ‘Ā 
      So if I just took the last line Ken wrote serious, it would have worked weeks ago šŸ™ˆ But thank u so much Ken, brilliant solution šŸ™šŸ»
