Controllers and Music services

Hi there! I have reported this as a potential bug, but I wanted to see if anyone else has noticed this. Ever since upgrading to S2, my iOS controller will not stay connected if the Sonos app is force closed.  To reconnect the app, I have to reset the app and join existing system. As long as the Sonos app is not forced closed, all is well.  As soon as it’s force closed...issue.  I did not have this issue with S1.  I have performed the troubleshooting steps which lead me to this observation.  It’s been a few days now with no issues since leaving the app open. Thank you for any insight provided.

Hey there, hoping someone can help me out with this question. I have two Sonos groups in my house, one stereo pair of Ones (right and left), and another surround group (Beam + two surround Ones - R and L + sub).  Anyone know if there is a convention as to which Sonos speaker should/does become the group coordinator (for example, when both the stereo pair and surround groups are grouped together into one overall group)? It seems most likely that in the case of the surround group, the Beam would become the coordinator (though I can’t find any documentation to confirm this). The case of the stereo pair is less intuitive though - which one becomes coordinator, the left or the right? Is it randomly determined, determined based on alphabetical/numerical order of the device UDN, or always the R or L by default? Thanks in advance!

What is it with you guys? Outside of your speakers, you can’t seem to do anything right. Even your cookie notice doesn’t work the way it says. The verbiage says IF you accept then… but there’s no way not to accept. There’s no law that says I have to have them and I already paid exorbitantly for your hardware. I don’t want your damn cookies! i don’t want you in my life. I just want plumbing that controls the speakers   Next: why can’t I just delete everything and start over? Are you so arrogant you believe you can’t get it wrong? Or do you just not care?    Next: why can’t I get out of your stupid useless beta program without having to get your engineer on the phone only during business hours when I’m supposed to be working??  Your beta testing is nothing more than more dumb decisions on your part to remove us from being able to control these inexplicably expensive speakers the way we want to and to give you more control to force your selfish inane decisions on us. How is it that you th

Hi,I got the new iPad Air 4 and was dismayed to learn that Trueplay is not supported on it yet. Additionally, the web site makes no mention of it being planned for future support: https://support.sonos.com/s/article/3222?language=en_USVery disappointed to see this. The fact that owners of Sonos products are unable to get the best possible audio quality without an Apple device is already pretty bad, but the large backlog of older devices still not supported and complete lack of mention of new devices is not acceptable.Can someone from Sonos please reply and assure us that this device support is coming promptly? I would appreciate an ETA.Thanks!

HiI really like the jazz groove and wound like to donate to them so that I can get all their channels. But they are based in the US and the jazz groove is only added to sonos in the US.How can I listen to the jazz groove on the sonos app here in Australia?

I’ve used this Sonos speaker previously with the Android app but now I’m unable to connect to it unless I enable location services. Could anyone help explain why? This used to work great but I never had to use this before. Is this new and I don’t remember enabling this before or did the app used to work without this?

I see that SR2 is not compatible with the CR100.What are my options? Jim Sheehan

Gone fron this house for about 8 months due to Corona.  Now back, updated all my devices, and my phonen to S1.  Now, the Browse funtion won’t offer me music from my phone.  This 95% of what I listen to.

I’m using Youtube Music as my music provider. When I use the search functionality in the Sonos app I want to be able to start a radio from a given song in the song results. Currently I don’t have a way to do this and forces me to rely on playlists (I don’t do playlists, I want fully automated playlists based on my musical tastes and the song I’m asking to play) or cast from Google Play Music.

Hi,I’ve updated my controller today, now my Sonos Radio isn’t working and won’t reauthorise, Any ideas what I can do??? I’ve rebooted my PC and thats not worked…..

I've just bought a sony bravia kd55xh8096bu 55" TV. The remote is using Bluetooth and the playbar uses Ir. If i turn off the Bluetooth on the TV the remote will pair but then I can't use all the features of the remote like Google voice. Anyone found a way round this. So far the only option I can find is to buy the new ARC speaker at £799.Cheers in advance. 

Since receiving update from Oneplus on an Oneplus Nord this morning (10.5.7.AC01BA) the app won’t display the controls in the notifications area; notifications are “on” both in android settings and sonos app. Found people with same problem on different Oneplus devices here => https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/issues-with-new-sonos-s2-app-on-7t-pro.1237688/

I understand you can set auto-updates on the Sonos mobile app. Why can’t you set auto-updates on the controller on your desktop and laptop apps?

Hello,Now that we are being forced by Google to switch from Google Play Music to YouTube Music, I noticed the following permissions requirements when linking YTM to Sonos:View and manage your videos and playlists View and manage your YouTube activity, including posting public comments.Questions: What exactly does Sonos do in terms of retaining my YTM playlist data? Is this sent back to the mothership and analyzed? I’m asking because I have many video playlists in YouTube that have nothing to do with music, but I actually consider them somewhat personal and sensitive.* Why the heck is Sonos asking to post public comments under my name, and to ‘manage’ my activity? What do they actually do? This permission seems to be very excessive and unrelated to the function of playing music. What do they do with this ability? Has Sonos ever ‘managed’ someone’s account or posted comments under their name?Thank you for reading. * Note: I am fully aware that Google is an advertising company and they pr

Hi, every time I try to play something it says connection to Mixcloud lost. Can’t seem get Soundcloud to play anything now. Sonos system then selects its own music which continues to loop in connection lost. When it eventually plays a mix it will last for about an hour and then just switch to something else. (2 x Play 1, play 3 and bridge).

Hi all, I am trying to grab my free trial of Sonos Radio HD and my postcode doesnt seem to be recognised.  I have tried inputting it with no space and with a space in between the first three characters and second three characters but nothing seems to work.  The fact it is referring to it as a ZIP code suggests to me it is looking for a US format postcode.   Wither way I cannot claim my free trial currently.  Any advice on how to fix?

Spotify not showing in Music Services in Russia I installed the latest update, but it did not help. What can I do?

What does "Coming soon" mean to Sonos?  Why does the last half-year of Apple device releases not have Trueplay support?The iPhone SE 2020 was released over half a year ago. For much of that time this support page: https://support.sonos.com/s/article/3222 has listed support for the device as "Coming soon". I own an iPhone SE 2020 and still cannot get trueplay to work with thousands of dollars of Sonos equipment.Now let's take a look at the current "Coming soon" list, with release dates:iPod touch (7th generation) - released 20190528, 1.5 years since release. iPad Pro 12.9" (4th generation) - released 20200325, 7+ months since release iPad Pro 11" (2nd generation) - same as above iPhone SE (2nd generation) - released 20200424, 6+ months since releaseA reasonable person would call 6 months adverbs other than "soon". Moreover 1.5 years for the iPod touch is especially egregious, seeing as that was pre-covid. If support is not planned (ever) for a product, that should be clearly stipulated.

Sonos 2 app (android) is requesting an update for components (Boost+Speakers).  Push update button and it takes me to Google Play store, I open the app and it takes me back to the update button! It is stuck in a loop, assume I will have to delete app and reinstall?Dave

I have a system that should be fully compliant with S1, nothing is older than May 2020. Yet when I start the S1 client it tries to force me to download S2. I do not want to change, I can't believe the issues I'm seeing and basically nothing could force me to do that until they are solved. Why am I being forced to change, when none of my devices are even from 2020? How can I keep using S1? 

I am looking at Sonos speakers. The Web site lists numerous music services that play via Sonos speakers. I current am in trials at Amazon HD and Apple Music. I have not been able to ‘get’ whether music on Sonos must stream from my iphone to the speaker or if my phone (or voice commands) simply tell the speaker to stream directly from the music service. Can someone enlighten me? 

as you probably know, airplay suffer from a pretty massive delay.I would love to use my 2 Sonos ones as speakers for my Mac but its impossible to manage stuff like zoom calls and stuff like that with this massive delay.I was wondering if there could be a way to send the audio wirelessly to the speakers via the Sonos app for Mac instead of airplay and remove the delay. thank you in advanced,Asaf Navon

Hello I have been using a friend’s Spotify account to build a playlist in Sonos. I now have my own Spotify account so would like to switch in the Sonos App but not sure if it means I will need to build my Sonos playlist from scratch, if yes what do I need to do to avoid that?
