Controllers and Music services

I have just changed to EE from Bt with a new router and I need to know the correct Path for my music folder 

I have a Sonos Arc, Roam 2 and Beam. The Arc is in our living room, the Beam in an upstairs room. Especially when I use voice control (which is only set on the Arc), sometimes the app shows the Beam in use. If I change the player to the Arc, it seems confused and tries to play what was on the Beam on the Arc.For instance, if I had the TV sound on the Arc, it will play music from the Beam until I change it on the app to TV. If I had the Roam linked to the Arc, it’s worse. Can I set a default player on the app? I don’t use the Beam very often. 

Deezer tracks not playing, error msg ref insufficient network to maintain buffer etc.  

The community indicates that the greyed out music library can be fixed by accepting the update, however my system is up to date and there is no update to accept.   is there any other solution?Thank you

For about the past week (seems like there is a new S2 controller update out), I will lose access to some, but not, of my speakers from the Android app. Currently controller is Build 80.29.6. This is happening on both my tablet and phone. Right now, two of the four speakers show No Content even through music is coming out of them. If I try to play something, I get the message “Couldn’t play Content.  Something went wrong.” This happens with a TuneIn or Sonos radio station, Spotify, and my local music library. If I reboot the router and all of the speakers, it will work for several hours and then start displaying this problem. This first two days it occurred it also progressed about about 10 hours to not being able to find any speaker on the network. Again, they play fine using the play/pause button on the speaker or the Windows 11 app. Any thoughts? Hope for a fix soon?Thanks,  Bryan

Well the app has changed and now problems are back. Can’t connect try again. All over the place. Takes 15 minutes just to try to get one damn playlist going.

I am trying to find the setting for managing guest access in the iOS app. https://support.sonos.com/en-us/article/adjust-connection-security-settings When I follow the instructions of the article, I am not seeing the options that are described in the article. I am going to:Account / Legal and Privacy Section / Privacy & Security The only options displayed are “Additional Usage Data” and “Personalization Service” and nothing about managing guest access. I reached out to support and they only had me follow the same steps, ensured my app was up to date, and then suggested a full reboot of my router (???) and deleting and reinstalling the app. Surely the app was just updated and the setting was moved / removed and their support article simply wasn’t updated. Has anybody ha

I’ve read about an issue with the alarms on Sonos systems from earlier this year, with most people saying they have now been fixed.Unfortunately since the last update for the app a week ago the alarm on my system doesn’t go off. I switch it on in the app, it switches it off straight away. I can’t create a new alarm. I’ve tried resetting the Sonos, force closing the app - nothing works. Any suggestions?!

When The new design of apps launched in May 2024 I found that the only controller left that would allow you to control your sonos devices without an Internet connection was the Windows Desktop App. This appears to no longer be the case and the Windows app now fails without an internet connection. Can I askin which version was this change made? and can we get a copy of the old version from somewhere?  

Not sure if it’s a bug or a feature request, but when I open my Sonos iOS app the “now playing” song metadata is always behind (showing the prior song).  A small gripe since it takes a second or two to refresh and get caught up.  Why can’t the app just update this metadata in the background all the time if music is playing?   FWIW I don’t have this lag with Apple Music or Spotify apps.  

Amazon Music keeps cutting out on Sonos systemI’ve been having ongoing issues with Amazon Music streaming on my Sonos system. The problem only happens with Amazon Music — all my other services (Spotify, Pandora, etc.) stream perfectly without interruption.When I play Amazon Music through the Sonos app, the music will randomly cut out, stop in the middle of a song, or skip ahead to another track on its own. It happens across my speakers at the same time, which makes listening really frustrating.For context, I have two Sonos Amps (one powering my inside speakers and one for my outdoor deck speakers), a Sonos Move 2, a Sonos Move, an Arc Ultra system, and a regular Arc system. No matter which part of my setup I use, the issue is the same.I’ve tried the usual fixes — rebooting my router, updating Sonos software, removing and re-adding Amazon Music, and following community troubleshooting suggestions — but nothing has solved i

Hello,I was using Spotify with my Sonos speaker for some time and recently I gave Apple Music a try. Normally, when using Spotify service, when I request a song from Sonos Voice Control, it would first tell me what song is being played and then the reproduction would start. When I switched to Apple Music it doesn’t do that anymore. It just plays a chime indicating that the request has been received and then the song playback start.My question is - is this a bug or feature? :D Is enunciating what is being played not available for Apple Music?Thanks in advance!

i have this URL for S-Dance Live: https://hello.citrus3.com:2020/stream/sdancelive?ver=242546 it works in Tune In App, won’t work on Sonos app when added there please advise Thanks

Hi, We have 5 Sonos speakers in total, using Wifi setup to connect to the speakers. 4 of them are grouped whereas one is individual speaker. (4 Sonos 5; 1 Sonos Era 100)We have set alarms from 730AM to 730PM and the playlist are from SoundTrackYourBrand (12 hours in the settings).However, the alarm is only trigger/playing on the individual speaker as shown below: Please help!

Sonos deletes songs from my playlists and substitutes them for other songs in My Music. Why, and how do I stop this happening?

I have a new Sonos setup (2 x Era 100 speakers with a Sub Mini).  It works perfectly with my iPhone 16 over Airplay 2, and on my mac mini it works fine using the Sonos App.However, my mac mini refuses to connect to it via the system “sound” settings.  I can see the Sonos, but when I try to connect it just fails.  I also cannot cast any audio using the Apple Music app, or any third party all for that matter.I have tried restarting both the Mac and Sonos system to no avail.  Ideally, I want to use the Sonos speakers as my Mac speakers, for all music/musics, etc.  I cannot be restricted to use within the Sonos app.They are both on the same network, so that is not the issue.  Any ideas?

I am using Sonos1.added MyTuner as a service to Sonos.like to Play Station MyTuner: FilSwissFM.This station does not play via Sonos.using MyTuner as stand alone app, FilSwissFM plays through MyTuner.please find the reason why Sonos can not play this station and correct the problem.

First this small entry from the ‘Spotify’ community for the background. I seem to not be the only one struggling with it: Spotify will play track A, continue to B.Then it stops, while showing it's still playing A, but at the end.If I hit 'Next' it will play B again.So, I have to hit 'Next' again to go to track C.It will play C, then D.And then it stops, showing it's still playing C.I have to again hit 'Next' twice to go to E. I have the above problem, and after a few weeks of non-interrupted music, it started again.And I think it has to do with Sonos alarms, or with a lack of proper communication between Sonos and Spotify. Below are:

I had all my Sonos on one app. I was able to group all my speakers in any scheme. Now I am setting up my system after getting back in house after flood and I have to run two apps. What happened. Two of my speakers are “not compatible” with sonos1 app. I lost my capability to group my speakers    I have called Sonos and spent time in phone deleting system adding app adding speakers again resetting speakers deleting apps adding other apps WTH. I also can’t use Sonos I had on my laptop. Web app doesn’t work. Sonos app doesn’t work sonos1 app doesn’t work  what happened?I am so frustrated over such a simple thing to do  

My phone is not capable of iOS 17, so I can’t download the update to the Sonos app. How can I then “add a device” (2 x era 300’s)?thanks

Why has my Sonos app lost connection to my speakers?Issue:My device (iPhone 16 Pro) app “cannot find product/speakers on this network” Not possible the reconfigure the speakers in app, as the app constantly demands new login as “system owner” (even after I’ve already logged in several times) Not possible to stream music from device to speakersTried fixes:Updated the app to newest version (check) Reset all the speakers (check) Reset the network router (check) “Connected” two (out of 3) speakers to the same network as device (check) Still cannot find the speakers on the network, therefor not possible to set them up Logged on (app and desktop) as system owner several times

I dont see the new contextual Play-Button after Update App and System. 

for years I used the apple music app on phone/mac/apple tv. I find the interface intuitive. If I search for an artist, it shows that artist with the option to navigate to albums, songs, "artist essentials" ect. In sonos app, I don't get that. If I search for an artist, the results are just mashed together. It makes exploring the work of an artist almost impossible. For reasons unclear to me, the interface through the sonos app is different for the worse. Im I missing something?

I updated to the latest and I am not seeing the new play button functionality. It still behaves like it did before this update. Is this a slow roll out?

This has got to be one of the sickest jokes ever.. One year after the dreadful Sonos update, I noticed that I could finally edit and create new sonos playlists again. However after editing some of my old playlists, and creating a few new ones I now receive an error when opening these playlists saying that "the content is not available". This doesn't make any sense; some of the lists I just created, so the music is obviously still available. I have no problems with my WiFi, my system is up-to-date, and there doesn't seem to be a glitch either as I still can't access the playlists after closing/opening the sonos app multiple times. So everything signs to the sonos app still not working as it should be.Is anyone else experiencing smth similar? Right now creating playlists feels like playing Russian roulette; you could spend hours creating them, and who knows if you can still access them seconds later..
