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??

make sure your speakers and controllers are up to date ie version 9.0
and you are running ios 11.4 or higher
in the home app press the plus icon in the top corner.
now tap add accessory
then tap don't have a code or can't scan? the speakers shoud appear here.
you need to add speakers one by one
then give them names
then you can use siri to play from apple music
or airplay direct to your sonos speakers from all apps that support airplay
it should work because i was able to add my speakers to the home app
