I have a MacbookAir on my network upon which is a folder of 4692 songs. I have added it to my music library, but when shuffled, only 1907 songs appear in the queue. No amount of tweaking seems to change this situation.
I just want all the songs to play in random order. Is there some other way to achieve this?

Hi
Welcome to the Sonos Community!
Sorry to hear of this issue you were having.
That is curious! I cannot imagine why that might be - I can only suggest getting in touch with our technical support team if you encounter anything similar again.
Are the tracks in sub-folders, or all in one folder together? I know that the folder view of the Music Library in the Sonos app will only offer the Play/Shuffle buttons when there are playable files in the current folder, and I don’t think they add files recursively from sub-folders, if that helps?
I don’t know what difference it makes, but I renamed all the tracks (song1 - song4692) - updated the library, and now shuffling adds them all to the queue. Curious.
