I have 4 rooms where I want individual alarms … but the alarms overlap each other in the timespan needed. Not possible or…? Does alarm 1 have to end before alarm 2 can start - and so on?

As long as the alarms are in separate Sonos rooms, they should not impinge on each other….assuming the streaming company being used allows multiple streams on your Sonos.

The speakers works fine with individual streams at the same time all over the house. But not with alarms…?

Can you tell us exactly what it is that does not work?

If alarm in room 3 is set to start while an alarm is running in room 2, alarm 3 will not start. That’s the problem. Only if alarm 2 is stopped before the alarm 3 should start will alarm 3 start correctly.

Ok, the alarms are working but I am ‘hit’ by this annoying chime problem… will try to adjust the alarm times a few minutes …
