Alarms…!

Over last week or so, I’ve been having a repeat issue with Alarms on my Play (s)

The alarms simply appear to randomly disappear.    Very frustratingly - one of the Plays resorts to Sonos Chime, while the others remain silent.

I’ve re-entered  the data may 10 times over the last 4 or 5 days ; they occasionally seem to operate once then disappears.

Am I missing something, or is there still a underlying problem with the software?

Hi ​@Tobermory 

Welcome to the Sonos Community!

We are aware of some issues with Alarms impacting customers and are investigating. We don’t have an estimate for when a fix will become available, but I will update this thread when I hear of it.

If possible, we recommend you use a desktop controller (Sonos app for MacOS or Windows) to adjust alarms in the meantime, downloadable here.

I hope this helps.

@Tobermory, Reboot every Sonos speaker, please, by unplugging them. Afterwards reset the Sonos app as well, re-connecting it to an Existing System.

Thank’s for these two responses.   I’ve managed a temporary fix, leaving the two units on which I ‘use’ alarms permanently switched on!

The reboot and app refresh suggested by Smilija did work,  but all Alarms had disappeared again next morning..!
