Sonos Controller Installed In Linux OS

Because Sonos has releases the web app (play.sonos.com) there has been no new developments for the desktop app, They have essentially been abandoned in lieu of the web based version.

With the web app you are able to control your system from anywhere, if that interest you.

I had a friend successfully build & run my Sonos app on Ubuntu, just needed to install the .net 8 SDK on it:

Thank you both for the input.  

Controlav, I’ll certainly check out the github.com path and see what that entails. 

Pools-3015, I am most definitely interested in the web app.  I opened the web app, signed in and It does work, sorta!  It seems to have a somewhat limited function set in that I can start playing music only with the iphone/ipad app.  But once the music starts I can control start/stop, skip and volume with the web app.  However, I haven’t figured out how (or if even possible) to access the music on the laptop and play it!

Do either of you know if it is possible to have the web app access music on the laptop?

Thank you.

You will have to setup a local shared folder.

I am not sure how to do that with your OS. The most reliable way for me is to use a NAS to store your music. I use Synology.

Haven’t used this one for a while, flatpak version should run on any Linux.

Thanks.  Setting up shared folders & NAS’s are total greek to me so it’s something I’ll have read up on and see if I can determine just how far above my level of incompetence they might be!  😱

Thanks.  I’ve tried three installs/uninstalls of Noson and so far no go!  Noson is never able to fine the Sonos “zone”, always returns “Action Can’t be preformed”.  

I’ll keep plugging way at it but if either of you have any other thoughts or comments they would be appreciated.

Thanks again.

If a flatpack install isn't finding your Sonos you likely have the firewall misconfigured or the Linux system is on the wrong network

Setting up the music library on Linux should be simple and covered in your distribution's setup guide under file sharing and SMB shares.

Doing it manually isn't hard, these should get you started.
