Controllers and Music services

I have several Sonos speakers. I want to reduce the volume of just one speaker. How can is this best done?What I do at the moment on my Andorid app is this:(1) First tap the volume dot for the whole system. This shows the volume settings for each speaker. I often play at a low volume, such as setting number “9” which means there isn’t enough space on the slider to tap to the left of the volume indicator dot.(2) Next I tap to the right of the dot (which increases the volume) and then use the smartphone’s volume control buttons to lower that particular slider’s setting to.That’s a very clumsy way of doing it. Is there a simpler and better way?

I have a ‘port’ and programmed local fm radio i get ads before the station comes on?it seems like something maybe sonos generates, not sure? 

I have having issues with the Sonos app. When I search for a song/artist-album, for example, Miles Davis… the result will appear in multiple services.  I usually like to play through Spotify, but I can’t get down to Spotify on my list of services. I try to scroll past Amazon and SoundCloud and the app ‘jumps back up to the top. It is super annoying- I can see Spotify as the next service, but the screen jumps back to the top before I can select it. Any ideas?

For the last couple of months every time I start up the Sonos app on my S21 phone, I can’t scroll the My Sonos tab either across to show more radio stations or down to show the BBC Sounds options. Sometimes it allows me to scroll across but not down and other times no scrolling at all.If I press Edit then Done in the Edit screen without changing anything, the scrolling works OK for the time that the app is loaded, but if I close and re-open the app it goes back to not scrolling again. 

Afternoon all,Bit confused. Removed a SUB from the kitchen environment and replaced it with a new one. Only reason was the colour! Kitchen redecorated in white and a white sub fitted in more 😀 The (removed) black sub I created a location for in our Hall / Stairs area. That area already has two pairs of B&W CCM 682’s in ceiling … one pair in hall, one pair on landing. Also an existing Sub on landing. Tried to add that and indeed the device was reset and added to the environment. But when I try to add it to a room, only three Amps are visible. Interestingly the new black square Amp’s. The slightly older Connect Amps do not show in the app yet they are S2 compatible. The Hall/Stairs/Landing device is an S2 Connect Amp. Arguably it could benefit from an upgrade to the 125W unit but surely that should show and allow the second Sub to be added to it? Any ideas on that? I’m going to do a full network reset tonight and see if that helps. it’s been a while since it was all rebooted. The S2

Hi, in the current version setting up an alarm to play your song in playlist automatically puts it in a repeating loop. Also there is no option to stop the alarm automatically when the song finishes. I would like to request Sonos to make:1. repeat loop an option in alarm settings whether you want to repeat or not?2. Have an option to stop alarm when the song finishes, in addition to the current method to set a time limit. like the suggestion to make Sonos make the changes. Thanks

Hi,I’m sure it’s been asked before but can’t find the answer… How can I use the Sonos app on my phone to connect to my car speakers via Apple Car play? Thanks!

I think you owe your supporters ( the consumers who buy your products)  more information on the updates that you put out. Explain what they are for and what fixes and changes are expected. This “ bug fixing description ” is poor judgement coming from you. 

A cool feature, I think, would be to have a countdown shown on the Queue screen. Hours, minutes, and seconds. Not sure that its particularly useful, but, strikes me as a nice-to-have. 

Can I get my sonos system work from a laptop ? If so what do I need to download gone on the sonos website clicking the button for download and nothing Can you also get the app to work on I pad ?  cheers 

Hi all , I'm using the S2 app for my beam gen 2 and I get the notification in the notification drop down menu on my android phone but when the TV is off the notification defaults back to the last radio station I had on but also I can't use the " remove notification" button , it does nothing, if I remove the home screen widget iam then able to remove the drop down notification, thing is , I like the widget ! Definitely a bug with the app .  

Since a recent update this stupid screen pops up, and you have to piss around with the app for five minutes to get rid of it.Ironically it's blocking the favourites screen, and serves absolutely no purpose.Please get rid of it.

This question has been asked myriad times in slightly different formats/ contexts but here goes again; how do I print off the track list from a Sonos playlist so I can share it with someone else?  Adding a layer of complexity, can I share it with another Sonos user?

I have an older Mac Mini, A1347, from late 2014, hooked up to my home theater system for some games on it. Apparently this model doesn’t send audio out through the HDMI cable. My system in that room uses a Playbar, two Sonos 1 players, and the woofer (forgot what it’s called). When I try to use AirPlay so I can play the audio from this Mac through my theater sound system in the same room, that system (based on the Playbar) is not on the list of Sonos devices I can use for playback. All the other Sonos devices in that building and in the house (all on the same LAN) show up, but not the theater setup.Is this a solveable problem or is there some reason the Playbar and combined system of 4 speakers can’t handle AirPlay when all the smaller devices can?

I’ve created a simple command line control program for Sonos, implemented in Python. I find it very useful for creating a variety of Sonos control scripts (e.g., using cron to run scripts at specific times), and sometimes just for quickly controlling my Sonos systems when I don’t want to start the app. It works with S1, S2, and split Sonos systems, and it should run on any OS that supports Python 3. If you’re comfortable using Python and the command line, you may find it useful, too. It’s quite powerful, with a wide range of control actions, yet simple to install and use. GitHub: https://github.com/avantrec/soco-cli PyPi: https://pypi.org/project/soco-cli This is an early release, so expect some bugs and limitations. I’d welcome your feedback and suggestions.

Help please: I have the Arc, a Sub and 2x Fives for my surrounds in my 'Living Room' zone (Arc+Sub+LS+RS) connected to my television.Can I switch the 2 Fives for use in stereo with my turntable (yes, I have a preamp) so I can listen to vinyl as well (not at the same time)?Thanks in advance.

This sucks that I cannot log into my Tunein premium service! Now I have to listen to adds each time I want to listen to a radio station. Get with it sonos, your system sucks. Looking for a new home audio system. Sonos is not a user friendly product!

How about creating a few more more Sleep Sound stations - like Surf or Brook or Crickets?

I used to get lock screen controls on my iphone to control the sonos system. Now they are gone. Not sure exactly when they disappeared, as I’ve updated both Sonos and IOS devices numerous times. A super convenient feature, which I’m really missing. I can see this issue has cropped up before, and the solution was to delete non-sonos airplay devices from the ios device. To me, this isn’t a solution. I would like to cast my phone audio to other devices. This WAS working. I can’t get a concise explanation as to why Airplay and Sonos aren’t working well together! Anyone know how to get this working?

I have a Sonos Five, Beam, and Symfonisk satellites in my living room. The Five is purely there to connect my turntable, so I do not want it to play when the TV is being used. Is there a way to accomplish this without having to manually toggle speakers every time we switch from the turntable to the TV?

Hi there. We privately sold our Sonos Bridge and Play 1 speaker yesterday but have not unlinked these products from our account. Can anyone help with any instruction on how best to go about fixing this oor will we have to ask the buyer to return so we can reconnect to our WiFi system?

My Sonos system suffers from the Controller being slow to start, I mostly use Android on tablets, usually three different ones, and all have the same symptom.When waking the Sonos app from sleep or starting it if not running, it takes 20 to 30 seconds to populate the screen and before any action can be performed.Here (diag below) I rebooted my Samsung S6 Lite and started the Sonos app. I’d left it to show the System / Rooms page where the problem is most obvious. It populates the screen with a random room, then adds the others over the next 22 seconds. They appear in what looks to be a random order and with the Room tiles initially overlapping in the display. During the population process the “active” Room bar appears on-screen but the Play button is not functional. At first appearance it isn’t even active, tapping it has no effect. If tapped a bit later it switches to show it has been tapped but still isn’t functional. Waiting a bit more it will change to Play or Pause and the selecte

I have four Apple TVs. One is connected to a Sonos Beam, one uses the speakers in the television, and two are connected to Sonos Playbars. Two of the Apple TVs use the new Siri Remote — one connected to a Playbar, the other to the Beam. Yesterday, July 29, both remotes ceased to control the volume on their connected Sonos products (Playbar and Beam). The remotes continue to control functions like power and navigation on the Apple TV, but not the volume. The Apple TV that is connected to the Playbar, but uses the older style remote continues to function properly. The only thing I can deduce is that for some reason, the newer remotes are no longer sending a compatible IR signal to the Sonos Beam and Sonos Playbar. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions?
