Controllers and Music services

I have a Sonos Move, One SL, and Port and a Brennan B2 music server with my CD collection that has been working perfectly for almost a year. However, three days ago I noticed that some songs can not be found by my Sonos in the Brennan server. The most puzzling thing is that the “trouble” songs play in my One SL when it is the only speaker but not if I make the Move or Port the sole output. I notice that the problem songs have characters like ñ, accents, and/or question/exclamation marks in their titles. I reset all my Sonos components and that by itself does not fix the problem. The problem goes away only when I remove the offending characters from the name of the songs in the Brennan B2 music server. I have not made any changes in my system to have caused this problem. Has there been lately an autonomous update in the firmware of my Sonos components? How can I fix it? I would prefer not having to go through my full library in my server removing offending characters that were not a pro

Can’t play any radio station at all all of a sudden, I get :“Unable to play “Sonos radio” access denied  or “unable to play the radio station” messages despite being logged in and able to play other music via Apple or Tidal without issue, internet connection good etc.Have logged out and back in and tired from multiple devices, same. 

All other aspects of the YouTube connection are positive in Google. 3rd party apps shows the Sonos app has permissions for YouTube Music. Activity is tracked in Google activity tracking. Sonos app shows ALL the right YouTube Music information on music through ALL aspects of search (New, Charts, Playlists, etc)However, I still have the error coming up in Sonos app. I can go to Google and look at activity and it shows the songs (videos though) as being played for the short period before it errors in Sonos. So the Sonos app is attempting to talk to YouTube Music, get’s a connection and link, then get’s an encoding error as it is a video it is hitting and not YouTube Music (therefor the encoding error).There are so many rabbit holes to follow to fix, but it looks like the Sonos app is sending the wrong call to YouTube and getting a “Video” response rather than a “Mp4/Music encoding” response and can’t play it resulting in an “unable to connect to YouTube Music”.It would be appreciated if y

I have an album in my library which is in WAV format (it was a download from a vinyl I bought, so I can’t rip it into another format)  I have listened to it several times over the last 2 weeks via my Sonos system but today, after updating to the latest version of the app, the album no longer appears when i search for it.If I navigate to the folder  sonos will play it but it won’t show in a search. The files haven’t changed in anyway, so I can only assume someting has changed with the app?  I saw some old posts which refer to problems with WAV tags but the articles they link to no longer exist so I can’t check what was mentioned in them to see what they suggest.if anyone has any ideas I’d appreciate it

Sonos had my Music Library added for years off my WD MyCloud NAS drive and now (either after the Sonos update or an update to MyCloud; they both happened at the same time) Sonos won’t add the library. it gives me an error.I’ve tried following instructions on the link but it has no impact. This was working and now it isn't with no affect from me 

It never happened before this latest update.  Anyone else having same issue and any idea how to resolve it?

Recent problem (within last week), connection to Spotify is lost.  I am running latest version of Sonos on all my Sonos Amps and Speakers. 

I am a premium member of YouTube Music and I have successfully added the service to my Sonos app in Android.However, when I try to play music from YouTube Music it is showing a message that access is denied. Please help. Thank you.

My system is a pair of Sonos 1’s with S2 controller. Mac OS Big Sur. After upgrading from S1 to S2 I lost acess to my Mac OS library. It resides on another drive attached to my desktop. I have tried every possible suggestion on this website and still can’t manage to get it to recognize the library. I think it has something to do with the path. When I browse for the folder on the desktop, I identify it without problem, but in the iOS Sonos app it lists a different folder. If I try to force add the folder by typing in the path, it won’t recognize it. Any ideas?

Hi,I have upgraded both Sonos 2 (13.1) and Sonos 1 on my iMac; but now i have lost my music library.II have now spent 3 days trying to reload the library to Sonos and every time i get either a1002 or my iMac is blocking Sonos access message. I spent 2 hours on the phone with one of Sonos’s support guys and achieved nothing.Everything worked perfectly prior to the download of the new Sonos version (13.1). To my knowledge nothing has been changed on my computer.Actionstaken:Norton Anti Virus removed from computerIMac Anti Virus turned on and off - neither workFile Sharing turned on and off - neither workedinternet Router turned on and off 4 timesNew Sonos 2 and Sonos 1 downloaded several timesAccess  to music file, access to iTunes access to Music all selected and all failed to load library.Does anyone know what is causing this problem? 

Diagnostics code: 800228317“Unable to plant SONG - connection to Spotify was lost” is haunting me. I’ve re-authorized within the app, and can play Spotify directly on my iPhone / ipad on the same wireless network. And I can search spotify through the Sonos app. A recent failure is at the diagnostics code submitted. Appreciate any help Sonos may have...

Hello, I have a weird issue where I can be listening to a radio station and when someone else on the network opens the S2 app - playback stops for a few seconds before coming back on again. Does anyone have any ideas as to what would cause this? It seems to only happen with radio (Sonos Radio/TuneIn) The network consists of several Connect:Amps and a Playbar all hardwired (individually) direct to a gigabit network switch which has a single uplink to the main router. There’s also a Sub which connects wirelessly. I’ve isolated the network to only have Sonos on it and the issue still appears. Broadband speed is good. Any help appreciated!

I have installed a NAS drive and My Cloud Home on my Sonos.  I have dragged and dropped all of the music albums in my iTunes library to the NAS drive.  Almost all of them are then available from the Sonos My Cloud Home library menu, and play normally.  However, there are a few music which will not show up in the My Cloud Home library menu - even though they are present in the data files on the NAS drive.  I have deleted and re-loaded the data more than once - but the same few music albums refuse to be available in the My Cloud Home view.

I love Primephonic, but having an issue where if I pay anything which I have set as a favourite, I get a 402 error, but everything else from the site works perfectly!

Hi all!I have two Sonos speakers at home and we recently bought two speakers in the work office, which I duly set up. As I already had the Sonos app on my phone, I just linked the two office speakers to my personal account, which is fine when I’m at work (as the music usually runs off of my mac), but when I’m not in the office and someone else wants to use or download the sonos app, they would need my personal log in details.I have a Sonos account set up for the office, but I’m not sure how I go about moving just those two products to that account and off of my own personal account?

Hi, My Sonos system comprises round 10 Play:1, several Play:3. All works brilliantly and I love it. Moved over to Sonos Radio and very pleased … apart from one thing.Every 10-14 days alarms stop working first thing - I get the infernal chime instead of Radio 4 at 630am! When I check the app it says radio needs reauthorised. When I click to authorise it all works fine again and stays that way for another period of time before the whole saga starts again. This has now happened maybe 5 or 6 times.Is there any way to make the authorisation permanent? I don’t have this authorise problem with Apple Music or Spotify. It is rather annoying as always appears on a 630am alarm then I need to fiddle around to get Radio 4 for wakeup!If anyone can offer any assistance I would be very grateful. Thanks in advance!Kind regardsAndrew

Anyone else getting a message on the Sonos App Apple Music is experiencing a full outage? Anyone know what this means?

When I try to connect my YouTube Music Premium account to Sonos it gets as far as YouTube Music saying it’s approved and to continue setup in the Sonos app. But when I switch back over to the Sonos app it says there was an error but does not provide an error code.

I cancelled the service 2 months ago and they keep charging me.

looks like somethings broke, cant play from stream, but can if select artist from following and chose from song.

I have searched in other topics, but i have not found any answer or fix for this problem.Suddenly during a song it can stop for a couple of seconds and then continue again. This is very frustrating. What i have tried so far is. Changing router, channels on the router. Connecting through wifi and also with ethernet. All kinds of resets. I have tried using Spotify connect and also the Sonos app. I’ve tried from different devices too to connect.I also have a Play 1. No problem whatsoever with that one.I have tried other streaming services (Youtube music & Apple music) and with them there’s no issue at all.I’ve had this problem for more than a year.I just submit a diagnosic: 1540223134

Bonjour,depuis quelques jours il est impossible de lire beaucoup de pistes Amazon music HD avec mon Sonos connect.Une message s’affiche: “impossible de lire - Le morceau n’est pas correctement encodé”Je ne comprends pas tout marchait parfaitement il y a quelques jours.Est-ce un problème depuis une mise à jour?Merci pour votre aide.

Cannot set up a new account using Samsun phone. App replies “email already in use “. Created a new email account but the same reply from the app. Obviously something wrong with the app. Any suggestions on what to do?

I had Spotify working on my brand new Sonos system for a week until this past week when I added Soundcloud music service to my Sonos. I then tried to use Spotify and now keep getting an error message saying “the connection to Spotify was lost”. It is absolutely frustrating as all my other music services work. PLEASE HELP

I just recently purchased the Sonos Port to connect my turntable to my Sonos system, however, since connecting last Saturday, Sonos will no longer play anything from my Spotify account, and indicates “the connection was lost”. This could be unrelated to the Port, as i have since disconnected the Port, but not sure, and I do have an excellent wifi connection.My system will play other streaming ie. radio stations, but not with Spotify. My Spotify account will play on my computer or phone.I have tried a number of the suggestions noted re. Spotify, but no avail. Any suggestion would be welcome.Thank you.
