Ah well. We’ll look into it. Thanks for making sure,
Did you attempt to scroll along this edge? if you have the Apple Pencil does this help?
I have no proof but I suspect that there could be slightly different versions rolling out over several days - along with my previous speculation that this issue is tied to screen width.
My Windows system is down at the moment, but I didn’t have issues dealing with a “little” 50K playlist.
When I scroll the ‘songs’ list up or down a very narrow scroll bar appears at the very right had side of the screen. It is very narrow, and difficult to select with a finger. When you do manage to select it you can scroll up and down the list very quickly , but still no A-Z markings to give an indication of where you are in the list. (My local song list is only about 4,000 tracks).

Yes of course, ive tried scrolling the edge. I’ve also reinstalled the app and tried it on some of the different iOS devices in my household. All exhibit this issue.

If this was tied to screen width, the problem wouldn’t exist on all my devices using various screen sizes using the current iOS controller. It is only a problem on iOS. Are you saying that the A-Z index appears on your iOS device when selecting the Music Library → Songs listing?
Maybe a font or screen zoom setting?
With so few reports it has to be something most users aren't seeing.

Is this an issue only for the Songs list and the other lists have the index?
Sonos confirmed this was a bug on the Reddit post https://www.reddit.com/r/sonos/comments/1sm3pm5/az_scroll_bar_is_gone/

For me on IOS it’s only Songs.

Yes, that is correct.

All font and screen zooming is at defaults on the iOS devices.
I’ve never looked at Music Library → Songs before checking for this. Maybe most other people don’t either. It’s not a way I would select songs to play, since my library is so large.
If you are looking for a specific song, search is available.
