Featured artist (duets) doesn't show

Whenever a song plays where there is a main artist and a featured artist (example: Megan tha Stallion ft Beyonce) then Sonos doesn't show the featured artist. It only shows Megan's name. Source is YouTube music.

 

Also, i have the old playbar with sub and surrounds (play 1s).. whenever TV is the source and i decide to pause TV and play music via the playbar and surround system... Music plays as expected. But when I press play on TV.. the TV sound doesn't come through.

 

I have TV autoplay toggled on so TV should override the music but it never does in this scenario.

Yet the missing featured artist bugs me most. I keeps on having to google or open the YouTube music app to find out who is featured.

Try a different music service. YTM is pretty low-featured and buggy on Sonos.

Thank you. I moved to Spotify. All the functionality i need is there in the Sonos app. Soundiz worked beautifully.

 

One question: featured artist doesn't show in tracklist. For example, black coffee featuring Diplo .. the sonos app only shows black coffee as the artist .. it doesn't show the contributing artist ..

 

2nd question: tv autoplay is inconsistent. Anyone pick up this issue? Works when it feels like working
