Dear Sonos Community,I have a question related to the delay in “audio from the sub” menu setting in the Sonos iOS app with a Sonos AMP.At 1.04 (18:26) in the video. The “audio from the sub” menu option shows up. I don’t think this is working the way it should? I’m using this setting often to configure the sound and it is very annoying.Please check the video at 1.04:
hi All, When all my speakers are playing the same playlist, I may need to adjust the volume of the playback in one of the rooms. Noticed that when I use the physical control on the speaker to turn up or down the volume, the volume is modified on ALL speakers. This is frustrating, as in some rooms the volume is fine and does not need adjusting. Is there a way to adjust the volume on individual speakers without impacting speakers in other rooms when they all play from the same playlist? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Kenny
Seeing as this question was first asked 3 years ago, we still do not seem to have integration with Sonos and Google audio books...…Has there been any movement in this regard?

With the recent announcement of Amazon HD music support I was wondering if your playback source effects if music is HD or not. I stream my music via wi-fi from my Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra and am not sure if playback is in true HD or do I need an external converter. Thanks for your help.
Current setupLiving room: ARC+sub+ 2 Ones as rears. Basement: Play:5 I just got gifted a Pro-ject Debut. I do 90% of my music listening/ TV watching in the living room. Option 1: buy a port and use the turntable in the living room. option 2: buy a new Play:5 and use as rear surrounds in the living room option 3: inferior option. Use the turntable downstairs with the play 5.
I have a NAS drive with all my music on my home network. I’d like to setup a second library for my wife such that each of us can search our OWN libraries to play music from vs adding a second folder and mapping the share in Sonos as that just presents a unified library showing ALL music.Very simple use case:Sonos should let a user select from a set of local music libraries. I should be able to select My Library and only see content from there. The same model where I can add multiple streaming service accounts and choose one or another.
Just wanted to share the good news that I am successfully deploying the SMBv2 protocol on my Synology NAS (DSM 7.0.1-42218) with the Sonos App (version 13.4). Moreover, the NTLMv1 authentication is no longer needed.
This is still a ongoing issue for me no matter how many times I reboot, reinstall, etcit now plays silence for the first 10 seconds of songs sometimes along with the usual faults - song not encoded correctly skipping past added next song.I used to love my Sonos set up but over the last 6 months it’s been absolute rubbish. Im still not sure if it’s a Sonos, spotify or router fault. will this ever be solved? I was at one point thinking of buying a roam but with how this lot performs I don’t think I’ll bother. so frustrating 🤦🏼
My Sonos app on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e gives the error, ‘To group, make sure Kitchen is connected to WiFi and is set up on this system” when I try to add or select one of my other 3 Sonos speakers. I can select any combination of my speakers from my PC or Galaxy S10 phone. If I select one speaker from my PC, that is the speaker that my Tab S5e will get stuck on, with the above message. I’ve tried restarting my tablet and the one Echo Dot in the network.
Home do i connect sonos ti streaming device (e.g. YouTube)? Thank s a lot
I’ve seen this requested a few times but wanted to expound on the possibility of more enhanced feature control. Sonos, could we please have sound profile schedules, with the option to assign a profile to a room at specified times with the option to enable/disable features? For example, create a “Sleepy time” sound profile that turns on night night mode, disables loudness, and turns off surround. Assign that profile to a speaker/room and schedule it to turn on and off at specified times? features could include adjusting:-ambient/full music playback-tv loudness (on surround speakers)-bass level-speech enhancement mode-night modei know this is probably a big ask but these speakers should actually be smart if we are integrating them with smart homes and voice assistants :)I know you can sort of do this with voice assistants but with my British partner and my American accent voice assistants usually cause more problems than solve. It would be great if we could do this straight from the
When I am in Apple Music on my computer, I see 35 playlists. When I am in Apple Music on my Sonos app, I only see 23 of them. Why is that?
How do I play other apps on my iPhone through my Sonos sound bar?
Just changed my laptop to a Macbook Pro 16¨ - IOS 12.0.1, but in App store I can't find you app to control my devises from you ?
Hi all,I quickly want to share my experience I have made over the weekend regarding my Sonos system playing songs from my NAS (Synology). I have setup the connection between the NAS and the Sonos system quite a while ago and have just used it seldomly. Now I wanted to play some songs again over last weekend and realized that the connection / integration did not work anymore. No clue since when it failed.I tried different options including deleting / recreating the connection, creation of new users on the NAS, changing the password of the users and so on. I found articles in the net giving me the hint to check that the NAS is set to support SMBv1; but this one was enabled.FINALLY I found one article that helped me to solve the issue: two main conditions are necessary to make it work again: SMBv1 must be supported / enabled and NTLMv1 (as authentication layer) needs to be enabled / supported as well. Caused by updates and a higher default security level on the NAS the NTLMv1 was not enab
Why does Sonos not support the controller for Mac (or Windows for that matter). All online help tells you how to do things on iOS or Android. I use Controller on my Mac, and I find it very irritating that Sonos won’t provide any online support for computer users.
Hi all - so I have two of the newer Sonos 5 speakers tied together with a Gen 2 Sub and a soundbar. From what I understand the 5s and the Soundbar will support the Qobuz 24bit streaming, but the Gen 2 Sub will not. So my question - since they are all grouped together, will the two 5s still play 24 bit or will the sub bring it all down?
For a few weeks, Amazon Music is available in many new countries, including Poland: https://www.aboutamazon.eu/press-release/amazon-music-unlimited-expands-to-28-more-countries-around-the-worldWhen can we expect to have Amazon Music available in Sonos as well?
Does Sonos have any plan to allow its Users (Customers) to PASSWORD-PROTECT control of the App?This question has come up repeatedly from Sonos Customers, going back now over 8 years(!), yet it is always ignored by SONOS, or some diversion answer is given like “change your router” ...”hide your internet router password” ...”stop your guests using your internet” ...etc ...none of which truly solves the problem; a problem that I’m sure with all the tech expertise that SONOS has, just to simply password protect the app.Here’s a quick real example of how allowing access to my SONOS system by anyone with a SONOS app can be ...we had some friends staying. We didn’t give them access to our Sonos but they downloaded the SONOS app. Logged into our wi-fi (which of course I would give them as they need internet access for emails, etc) and they started using out SONOS at their whim. But it goes on - their son in another country logged into their Spotify, and started playing heavy rock, which (you
Hi,I have 3 Sonos speakers: a Play:5 a Play:1 and a playbase. Last week I noticed there was an update available for my system, which I installed. After the update I have problems with the IOS controller. The play:5 and playbase are disappearing from the controller all the time and only the Play:1 is visible. This only happens on my iphone with the ios app. On android all speakers are visible all the time. Sometimes it helps to have the app scan for new devices, sometimes the speakers just reappear again after some time. It's pretty annoying as my iphone is my standard device.I've reset the app, deleted it and installed it again, restarted all speakers by unplugging them, shut down my router, reste the wifi etc but the problem still exists unfortunately. As it only happens on IOS it seems more like a problem with the ios controller than anything else…..
My eldest is getting to the age where they are able to use tablets, PCs etc. and is getting increasingly independent. They also have a Sonos speaker in their room which they use for podcasts and music.What I’d really like is an experience tailored to kids and parents:Limit the rooms that they can control (no having fun messing around with speakers in the office or other bedrooms). Limit the sources / filter adult content Curated Playlists / streaming services (e.g. Stories Podcast on Stitcher / Spotify)Another issue is that their Windows Tablet is in Windows S mode to prevent random installs, so we are unable to install the Sonos controller software as it is not available via the Windows Store. Is there any reason that the existing Sonos Controller cannot be made available in the store via Project Centennial / Desktop Bridge / MSIX Packaging Tool, or whatever the current iteration is?
