Hey all,

I’ve had a Sonos system for 7 years and this is the first time I’ve had this issue over the last week or so.

Whenever I search under Artists, the top default result is Sonos Radio showing 1-3 genre station recommendations, followed by my streaming services with artist results if I scroll down below. Using both Apple and Spotify. Ideally I don’t want genre station recommendations listed first, I’m searching for an artist specifically to listen to which has always worked fine in the past.
I’ve updated and re-installed my app, re-authorized, removed and re-added my streaming services, which puts them back at the top of my search result for the first search I perform, and then defaults back to Sonos Radio results again under the Artists tab.
When I reached out to support I was told, “It’s a system feature, that’s how it is” but have never had to experience this feature before.

 

Anyone have any insight?

The top default should be the last service you went into.  What happens if you go into spotify or apple under browse.   then go back and do a search

 


Thanks for the reply and suggestion!
 

I went into Apple and browsed the artists in my profile, and when I went back to the search page it was the top result, amazing; but anytime the application is reloaded the search field pulls back to Sonos Radio as the default. If I constantly have to browse Apple first it defeats the search function, which I use to avoid scrolling a large profile. It’s consistent with how when I re-install the application or service, it triggers to Apple at first try but then goes back to Sonos Radio. Just a frustrating change on my end with the interface over the last week.
