I have a Sonos playbar and Sonos 5 speakers. I only hear the playbar and not the speakers. I have the volume all the way for the speakers. What do I need to do to hear the speakers? 

Are the Fives being used as surrounds for the Playbar or are the Fives being used as a separate zone/room? Do you hear any music from the Fives when streaming music?


Are these Play:5s bonded as surrounds? If so then for music you need to select 'full' mode rather than 'Ambient '.

For TV sound you need to be playing a surround sound audio format.

There are also sliders in the settings to adjust the  relative volume of surrounds to soundbar.
