As the title suggests I have recently updated to v9.0 but the feature I am most looking forward too trying (playing apple music via Siri voice commands to my Sonos One) does not seem to work. I can open the apple music app on my phone, select the sonos one as a speaker to airplay2 and hit play - that now works ok. Cheers Sonos ! ?



BUT The Sonos blog guide indicated that if I were to add the airplay 2 enabled sonos product (sonos One in my case) to my homekit app as an accessory this would then allow Siri voice commands via mu phone. I have followed those steps to add my sonos one but it seemingly leads to nothing - I open the home kit app, select accessory and add without code but then the speaker does not appear. I have tried pressing pairing button on the unit.



Am I missing something here??
Had the same issues. For me nothing above worked. But it worked after starting music from Apple Music (on the same device I control HomeKit from) to one of the missing speakers in HomeKit. I could see both speakers im HomeKit after that and added them sucessfully.



Created an account just to say this worked for me, thanks!

Maybe that helps other peeps ^^



P.S.: Airplay worked well also before adding speakers to Homekit - so no isses to control them via Apple Music before.




Now that worked like magic. I tried all other workarounds, but only after I streamed my apple music via airplay to the speakers that were not previously detected, started they appear on the home app... And adding them worked perfectly after that!
