Dolby Atmos with Era 300 and Apple Music is not working

I think I tried everything that I have read until now:

  1. Connecting the Apple Music to Sonos app
  2. Swithing on Dolby Atoms in Auto and Forced ON mode
  3. Played only Selected Dolby Atmos Playlist at Apple Music App

I saw that the Atmos badge is appearing while playing on iPhone speaker but not when Sonos connected. 

 

Did I miss something ?

Make sure the Spatial Audio setting under the Era 300’s settings is enabled in the Sonos app. You also must stream Dolby Atmos music from Apple Music directly from the Sonos app. Test the song “Staircase” by Steven Wilson.

Thank you very much for your help, now its working properly and Steven is in the centre of my room playing and singing ;-)

To sum up:

  1. Connecting the Apple Music to Sonos app
  2. Switching on Dolby Atoms in Auto and Forced ON mode in Music Settings (Settings/ Music/ Dolby Atmos)
  3. Played only Selected Dolby Atmos Playlist or Songs with Atmos.
  4. Spatial Audio need to be switched on in the System Settings of Sonos Speaker 
  5. Stream Dolby Atmos music from Apple Music directly from the Sonos app
