Controllers and Music services

Hello everyone. Im kindly asking your expertise. I have Project juke box E TT with a set of speakers from Project (x 2 Speaker box 5), connected to left/right speakers output on TT. Basically, usual set up.The TT also has RCA outputs at line level and preamp/phono level, also stereo RCA line-level input.My question, would it be possible to connect Sonos 5 to RCA line out with current 2 passive speakers connected, so the sound will play from all 3 speakers simultaneously? Or I will experience a short lag from Sonos 5, therefore audio stream will not be synchronized?Thanks for all your guidance!

Hello - I just purchased a Boost today and I cannot get it setup for the life of me. All of the online research tells me there should be an option in System → Settings to Setup Boost. After talking to support they have recently removed that option in the app during the latest upgrade. Has anyone had recent luck in getting the Boost setup?Thank you!

I dearly want to throw my complete Sonos system in the garbage but I can’t because I have invested over $7,000 in equipment prior to the S2 upgrade. The S2 upgrade has reduced my mixed system to barely operable garbage. 

Recently purchased a new Play5. During the set up I upgraded the controller to S2. Discovered that two Play 1’s in separate rooms have dropped off of the room tabs. Have reset them, turned of the controllers and turned off the router but they still don’t display.  what is the solution to get them to present in the right place?

Version 0.3 of SoCo-CLI, the open source Sonos command line controller for Windows, macOS and Linux, is now available:https://github.com/avantrec/soco-cli/blob/v0.3.5/README.mdThis release adds an Interactive Shell Mode, and also provides an API to allow the use of SoCo-CLI as a simple, high level library for inclusion in other Python programs.For those of us who enjoy using the command line to get things done, the interactive shell is fast and convenient to use. The shell is started using sonos -i, then just type ? for available commands. Most of the huge range of SoCo-CLI control commands are available:https://github.com/avantrec/soco-cli/blob/v0.3.5/README.md#interactive-shell-mode

I have purchased a CR200 remote and am unable to connect it to Sonos net. I have a bridge and 1 zone players connected over Sonos net (not wifi) and can connect my iPhone but the CR200 will not connect. It sees the network and says it is trying to connect but then fails and says your Sonos component was not found. I've reset my router and the Sonos system and reset it up from scratch but still no joy. I also tried pulling its battery out and didnt work, the CONTROL still does not connect.

Hi all,I haven’t been able to find a way, but just want to make sure I’m not overlooking anything. Is there any way to shuffle between multiple SiriusXM channels similar to being able to shuffle between multiple Pandora stations?Thanks,Ed

Hello,Some thumbnails of mp3 music files, located on my Synology NAS, show the wrong album art in my S2 app (app version 12.2.5).How can I correct that? Thanks. 

Why doesn’t someone make the android phone app do the same things as the PC app? They both show Music Library, SONOS Radio, Amazon Music and TuneIn. But the phone app does not show SONOS Playlists. If I go to on this Mobile Device, I see Playlists, but I get a message that says, No selections are available. There are no instructions I can fin as to how to add to the phone playlists. Please, can someone help here? I would like the playlist I have set up on the PC to show on the phone so I can choose the fruits of my labor. Thank you.

I have seen this occur with repeatability under MacOS.  Both Catalina and Big Sur versions.  I set the Sonos device as my default sound output device.  As shown below, ManCave and SonosBeam are Sonos devices.  Within a couple minutes the wired ethernet stops working on my Mac and then eventually a kernel panic.  I am able to control spotify music on the Sonos using the MacOS Sonos S2 App with no problem.  All Sonos devices are wired with ethernet.  I see this behavior when selecting both One and Beam products.  Below is crash report from MacOS.  Thanks Davepanic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff800fabf643): "Restart timed out in phase 'Notifying power plane drivers'.

The music I play from the Sonos app is registered in Last.fm. The problem is that the name of the used Sonos device is also transferred. The example below shows how my device named “ALRUM” is included in the artist name (Pavement). This is terribly annoying as I have to manually edit all registered plays on Last.fmIs there any solution for this?  

Original Sonos customer, with 5x ZP100 units.  Still going strong. When we upgraded our TV system,  immediately bought the ARC and the Subwoofer. Only in set up did I learn that S2 CONTROLLER APP exists. Yes, S2 drives the two new items well. YET, in the same room is one of the ZP100 units and excellent ceiling speaks. We'd love to be able to play both.  Any way to link them??

Hi folks, I can’t get 2 different Ports to play different music at the same time. I thought the answer was here, but I don’t see a “Rooms” tab in my S2 app. (Photo of that thread below). How do I play different music on 2 different ports from the S2 iOS app? 

So when I search for Artists, Albums or Songs within the Sonos app, I get no results from Tidal or Spotify.  E.g. search for Beatles and nothing.  However when I search Playlists I get results from both Tidal and Spotify. I have tried chatting with support but getting terrible customer service and nobody is responding to me. Has anyone else experienced this? I have tried authorizing again, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app and I have rebooted the router, nothing solves this. It is happening n multiple devices

I was wondering if someone could help me with this issue, which I have ignored for a couple months now. I have x2 Ikea symfonisk sonos speakers that I had linked to my Apple TV. Until December they were working fine but suddenly stopped working altogether. I decided to reset the speakers and set them up again and whilst doing this reset the Apple TV as well. The TV can identify the speakers (when I press the TV button on the handset) but when I select them as an option (tick the circle) it times out and reverts to the speakers in the TV. I know the speakers are working as I can link my iPhone to them but when done via the Apple TV box, nothing. I’ve carried out a few forum searches on this and it seems that others have had a similar issue. Most people seem to have lost the link. I haven't but the link no longer seems to work. Any help would be appreciated 

Hi All,Has anyone seen any official release notes for the new software update 12.2.3 released approx. 3 days ago?The Sonos site still appears to be showing the current version as 12.2.2 on the release notes page of their website?Strange the release notes aren’t updated at the same time that they release the software.Sonos the give away is in the name “Release Notes”… IE: Notes when you release software! 

Hi, can Sonos play itunes? Doesn’t look that way… please let me know so I can bring this product back to the store if not. Thanks

Just moved from a Buffallo NAS to a My Cloud Duo. I want to attach My Cloud as a NAS rather than as a Service so that I can continue to see my album art work, etc.. The My Cloud shows as Z: but I cannot get the Sonos app to accept this. Any help welcome.ThanksPaul Hugh

Hi everyone. I’m logged into my Sonos account with no problems, but no one else in my home can use their own logins on the service. Only my account is recognised. Is there anything we can do? Not even getting a drop down to see other Spotify (for example) accounts.In addition no one else can add their Spotify or other accounts on their devices because the Sonos app demands that they sign in with my Sonos account first. Surely it’s not supposed to work like this?

Hi, I haven’t seen a recent post on the topic. Can audiobooks purchased through Apple Books be played on Sonos?

How come the choice of the type of music has disapeared in the latest update ? when you go to explore, all the playlists are jumbled together, so if you are in a classical mood vs a blues mood, you’re f...ked….   

Anyone have an idea how to stop the pop-up window from showing up on the computer when using the controller on a Mac?  I checked preferences. It’s very annoying. There does not seem to be a way to stop it form happening or even close it. You just have to wait until it closes on it’s own.Any thoughts?

Krull och kriminell finns på Spotify med många pod avsnitt.Sonos får jag bara fram en live sändning. skulle önska att sök funktionen var mer snarlik den i Spotify  då den inte är lika  känslig för felstavning.    

I have just purchased a second CR 200 for my existing S1 system.  The first CR 200 is connected but intermittantly stops working.  The second controller will not connect to my system.  The message the CR 200 is displaying is that is it is “searching for Sonos components… The network configuration for this controller has changed.”  Understand this as it was connected to a different network.  Having spoken with Sonos they say they have a live issue with connecting new equipment to an existing system and I need to wait for that to be resolved. I beleive this is a brush off.  Can anyone assist? 

HiOn software 12.2.4 the latest and none of my speakers will allow me to adjust volume limit, it allows me to slide to slider down or up but just defaults to 100 as soon as I release my finger off screen!Has anyone else encountered same problem?This is on Arc set up, beam set up and playbase set up on both my iPhone and iPad  TIA
