Incremental volume control (tap slider) not working any more

Hi,

Using Sonos S2 app on Android 10.

I used to be able to tap the volume slider either side of the marker and it would adjust the volume a small amount each time. This no longer works, has this feature been removed or is it just me?

Also when I have speakers grouped, if I want to adjust the volume of only one of the speakers in the group, I can no longer tap the volume marker, get a pop up and then adjust the individual speaker - I have to drag the slider to get the pop up - which is a pain as it adjusts the volume of all the speakers at first so I can access an individual.

Tried uninstalling and reinstall with no luck.

Thanks

ok then, I followed the advice to power cycle all my speakers and the phone. Unfortunately my expectations were met. The nice tap function to incrementally change the volume is dead...

That’s a shame - thanks for trying.  I can only suggest you call Sonos Support, as this doesn’t appear to be a problem currently experienced by anyone else.

Running Android 10 on my work phone and just tried this function. I never knew it was a thing!

Anyway it works fine.  Maybe this is model specific?

Hey @hodgeal and @Stefan Schober,

 

I’ve tested this on my Samsung Galaxy S20 (Android 11) and a Moto Z4 (Android 10) and it functions normally for me. Could you let me know the model of device you’re using?

I'm using a Oneplus 6 since approximately 3 years now. This function always used to work on this device all the time since 3 to 4 weeks ago, give or take...

Interesting you have a Oneplus as well Stefan, I was literally just replying…

My device is a Oneplus 6t, it’s strange because I have tested it on my partners Oneplus 5t and her new 9 pro and it works fine on those with our Sonos system.

It is looking very much like OnePlus is the common factor, and checking with them would be a good idea.

if it really is an issue with the OnePlus 6, then one of the last updates might have killed this feature. I have my device for nearly 3 years now and I was using this function of the Sonos app all the time. It stopped working a couple of weeks ago.
