Trying to troubleshoot setup for BBC Sounds, trying to access through the Sonos app as it can not airplay directly from the BBC sounds app

I have checked that my country is set to UK, am up to date on iOS settings, using Sonos 2 and believe I should be able to find the BBC sounds app. Playbar was configured initially in Australia, but have moved back to the UK, and Playbar now set up here. The ‘Add Music Services’ option is still displaying apps, stations etc from Australia 

Is there anything I am missing? 

Have you tried deleting then reinstalling the Sonos S2 app?

That might refresh the connections allowing you to then add the BBC Sounds app in Sonos.

BBC radio stations are available in the Sonos App via TuneIn.  You only need to use BBC Sounds as a source if you want to control via voice, as the BBC no longer supports voice control from TuneIn. 

Thanks for the replies, I was trying to avoid resetting my system with a number of other Sonos products linked… but gave up and did the hard factory reset, and it worked straight away to add the BBC Sounds App

A bit of faff, but will be great to have the app available on the Sonos network now
