Web app shows i have duplicate systems? how do i delete one of them

Hi Corry will do tonight.

I have 4 units, playbar bonded to 2 x play1 as surrounds and a sub in one room Lounge Theatre, all were working great together before update.

The playbar updated, but not the play1s,  can’t recall exactly what i did, but i tried update again and i lost the play1s, power cycled playbar and i think i lost that, power cycled a play1 nothing, tried update again and it updated the play1s, all 4 units now on correct same version, but playbar can’t see the play1s to set as surrounds,.The sub doesn’t respond to app volume slide bar i went to bed at that point.

Is it best to unbond stuff before updates to be safe?

I have only just got the playbar and sub used so have 2weeks experience with them.

I think my photo might have triggered it as Corry can only see one system on my account, yet i can clearly see 2 called the same thing, sounds like a new bug with update…..

Funnily enough i get duplicate devices with google home, and have created another home called duplicates and hide them al in there, lots of people do same thing, google can’t solve it ..

Hi @Rhonny 

With any issue that is not already known, we’ll often jump in and ask for more details, screenshots or diagnostics, if asked for by our engineers when we report such an issue. In addition, with an issue like this regarding Households (systems), the best course of action can often only be determined with information available only to us - in this case, with a different flavour of Household that I didn’t even know existed. Without the right info, less informed advice may lead to a factory reset of an entire system, which is never really something that’s wanted or necessary.

In addition, for the last 2.5 months, we’ve had so much additional activity on the forum that we have not had enough time in each day to read all new posts and respond at all - reading new posts always takes precedence (we are forum moderators first and foremost). Activity has now died down somewhat, but we still have a lot of administrative work to get through regarding all the threads that have been created since May. You will see us getting more and more involved now, however.

It remains the case, however, that if someone is seeking help from Sonos specifically, then the best course of action is to contact our support team directly - this is, at heart, a Community forum. Which is not to say that top-class advice cannot be found here - I’ve seen quite a bit from you!

I hope this answers your query.

Corry, do you think this might be useful for user diagnosis for users with out a pc or laptop

On iPhone I’ve done this:

1. Using Safari, login at play.sonos.com and save login info to iCloud

2. Once the page opens, tap Aa on address bar and from menu select Website Settings >  Request Desktop Website. Tap Done.  (This will load that website as the required desktop version in the future.)

3. Tap on Share icon and tap Add to Home Screen. Give the icon a name. 

4. Start controlling Sonos using that Home Screen icon. (It remembers the session quite long but log in again if asked, Safari should ask whether to use the stored login info.) 

Turn iPhone landscape to see a better view. 

On iPad, it’s been enough to add the website via the Share > Add to Home Screen. The page layout is fine as is. 
 

The key is the desktop website view and Safari allows to define that setting by website unlike Chrome which has a global setting.

Hi @Corry P , 

Just a power cycle of playbar fixed it all a treat thanks, and please thank the Techy for me as well, guess he doesn’t get much thanks at present.

Could the leave wifi enbabled with ethernet on soundbars ,when using a sub be made more public knowledge somehow, i assumed it was the correct thing to do to get sonosnet, maybe the app should not let you switch it off….. 

I have the same problem and rebooting every device has not fixed any of it.
