Question

Alarm - group speakers

Hi

I have just purchased my first Sonos speakers - Play 1 and I have 3 of these in different zones/rooms.

Currently the speakers are not grouped and I was wondering is there a option to group these speakers when creating the alarm?

E.g. I create a new alarm, for this alarm I want the speakers to be grouped. The then alarm plays on ALL speakers or set of speakers that I choose and once the alarm has finished the speakers go back to its original setup - no grouped?

If this is not possible how do we go about suggesting this as a feature request as this is feature which I'm sure would be useful.

Thanks
Sho

    I second this its a needed feature.
    i use multiple alarms for each speaker but it would be a lot easier if there was a group all function.

    also needs a function to automatically switch back the source of the soundbar to grouped speakers when the tv is no longer providing input.

    Hi folks,

    While you can choose to include grouped rooms when creating an alarm, there is not currently a way to define a preset group for an alarm. We'll forward your suggestion as a feature request to our development team.

    Plus one for me - I would really like this for grouping 2 rooms together to automate radio background music during breakfast with the kids each school day
    (It works now but I have to remember to pre-set the group each night before going to bed)
