Grouping controllers not working on Version 5

I updated to release 5.0 build 26177021 this morning and the controller grouping function is no longer working. On both the App and desk top version it appears they are grouped but music will only play on a individual controller. Each controller will play individually but not grouped.

    I have the same problem. I solved the problem by taking my router off of automatic channel select and ensured it was set to a channel well away from the Sonos. Hope this helps

    Hello. I would say your issue is slightly different, this is an old thread that was discussing version 5.0. Can you tell us how your system is cabled? Also, please check for updates.

    But have to give him/her credit for searching for a matching topic, and posting there, rather than starting a new thread (about YouTube/Alexa/SMB). Yea, I'm jaded, why do you ask? 🙂

    Any chance of submitting a system diagnostic, and posting the number here, for the folks at Sonos to look at?

    Hello Chunky1234, are any of your Sonos products connected through boosters or extenders? E.G. Powerline adapters and/or wireless repeaters?

    It looks like there are issues with some network functions of Sonos in their current configuration.
