Playing different Spotify content in different rooms no longer working
I’ve been using Sonos with Spotify for many years now, and have always been able to play different songs in different rooms without any problems.
However, after receiving and setting up my Roam earlier today, this is no longer the case… :-(
Every time I try to start playing one song in one room, and then start another in another room, the first room stops playing, and the Sonos App (S2) says the following:
«Playback stopped in XXX. The Spotify account is beeing used elsewhere» (May not be 100% correct, as it is loosely translated from norwegian, but anyway)
And yes, before anyone suggest the limitations related to Alexa/Google etc; this is using the native Sonos App only. No Spotify Connect involved either ;-)
If there has been made any changes to the terms and conditions, and/or how the integration with Spotify (and other services) works, and this is the case, I cannot recall being «warned» about this.
The ability to play different content in different rooms with one (1) Spotify-account has always been one of Sonos’ core strengt in my opinion.
I REALLY hope that this is just an temporary issue, or a bug introduced with one of the latest software-versions? Otherwise, the Sonos+Spotify experience is rendered somewhat useless… :-(
If anyone else is experiencing the same, please reply. I also hope that a representant from Sonos also reads this and can give feedback on this issue.
