Maybe it would help to post the make and model of the speaker here.

A single “stereo” speaker has two connections, left and right. This satisfies both the equipment and human. For practical purposes the audio component is dealing with a pair of speakers and the human needs only one hole. This is appropriate for very small rooms, such as bathrooms.

Not knowing anything about your speaker, I would swap wires at the speaker. 

Cancellation due to mis-wiring will be dramatic with a single hole stereo speaker.

Thanks guys. It’s a monitor audio c180 t2 https://www.monitoraudio.com/en/support/past-products/core/c180-t2/ should I take it out of the ceiling and switch the wires? Or should I change the wires at the Sonos connect?

Do the wires at the Connect first as it is easy.

If they aren’t color coded, just labeled change the labels and call it good, if color coded best change at the speaker.
