I don’t believe that music played through the Sonos application (in contrast to using AirPlay 2, which uses the Apple Music player) doesn’t get ‘counted ‘in your Apple profile. You could probably test this fairly easily.
@Airgetlam There’s a double negative in your answer. Do you believe the music played on Sonos does or does not get counted. I remember reading it does not, but I’m not an Apple music user myself.
Good point, posting from a hotel while traveling doesn’t help.
My belief is playback when using the Sonos controller’s connection does not get ‘counted’ by Apple’s servers.
When using the Apple Music ‘app’, and AirPlay 2 to get the result to the Sonos does get counted.

Unfortunately, it most definitely does count. My wife plays classical, jazz, and children’s music for her preschool exclusively through the Sonos app (linked to my Apple Music account) and my auto playlists (my station, monthly listens, etc) are littered with those artists and genres. It really is more of an inconvenience more than anything else, but I am trying to find a solution to separate the two. I will keep plugging away… Thanks for the reply!
Interesting…thanks for testing!
