Controllers & Music Services

The Sonos app cusses a mild headache. The app is awful and every aspect is so horrible that I don't know where to start.Please start over.I often end up using my phone, headphones or internal computer speakers just to avoid opening it.

Al reproducir desde la aplicación de alexa music y conectar el sonos amp no me da la calidad de audio HD pero cuando lo conecto con ariplay ahi si me la da ayudenme porfa

I have two new Sonos speakers on Sonos 2 in my house - I have just built a garden room with separate router and am trying to use on an old I now renamed play 5.  It’s not S2 compatible. I assumed as it’s a separate network I could simply use Sonos one but I can’t get past the message to use S2 Sonos trying to bullying me into buying yet another product.  I’ve looked online and there are instructions on how to remove my other components but then I can’t get into S1 - I love the sound but this company drives me crazy …… any advice on how to fix this welcome. I’ve even tried to set up a separate account with a new email and that’s not working as the network is ultimately connected to the same broadband connection.

Would love to add my playlists to the Sonos favorites. There’s no way to easily pull up my favorites once they have moved out of the “Recently Played” section or use automation to play a default playlist. It takes digging into several menus to get back to my perferred playlist. 

I want to download my Sonos Playlist (created from Apple Music) onto my iPhone so I can play on third party equipment if necessary.  I want to do this without WiFi as often am away from Internet.Can anyone help me.OR I have a Roam SL.  Can I hook it up to my phone and play my Playlist?Any help appreciated

Since my Sonos app was updated to version 14.18.2 I get constant the following notification:Sonos: Stopping the service may interrupt playback notifications I can disable it if I uncheck the Background Services Notification, but this should not be the solution…Samsung S21 Ultra running Android 13 

Does anyone know when v11.9 was released on sonos s1?.. there is a bug with this version I discovered and am wondering when 11.9 came out… many thanks in advance 

Since Sonos is having so many problems, playing Apple Music. Is there a quality difference between playing airplay or Sonos app? Does it sound better coming through the Sonos app versus straight from airplay?

So the Plex integration doesn’t get HD or Hi Res flag in the interface when playing hi res files,When you “cast” from Roon over Sonos and it shows the signal path as being lossless again it doesn’t show the flag…Is there any way to get HD or Hi res flags other than streaming direct from local media library? Thanks

I have the Era 300 which I LOVE! But I would love it even more if the Sonos controller app on the Mac supported displaying the [Dolby Atmos] Indicator Logo when playing Dolby Atmos tracks from Apple Music.

Looks the names of my zones have been changed somehow in my sonos profile and it is causing some rooms to play music and one of my rooms I can’t get music to play. I looked at my setup and it looks like the names are different from what was originally set up I need to redo my configuration and start from scratch.  What is the best way to do that?

New to the Sonos ecosystem so this may be a stupid question 🫣 have an Arc, sub gen 3, connected to 2 Era 100s as surrounds. Let’s say I’m watching a movie and accidentally touch the volume buttons on one Era 100, does that throw off the volume of just that one speaker or does it do nothing? 

I confirmed “Radiko” not in service.But Japanese customer want to use “Radiko.”Are there any plan to add “Radiko” in the future? 

Can I be connected to the same sistem by wifi through the mobilie and connected by ethernet with my mac?

Guys, it is time: TIME for you to get with it and offer some Sonos Widgets for your iOS and MacOS apps. Also, I should be able to control my Sonos system with my Apple Watch. The iOS and Mac apps are getting pretty long in the tooth and both need some love. Widgets would go a long way in both scenarios.If you need some help, I suggest you just go ahead and offer a cartoon bag of money to these projects and bring them in-house:Menu Bar Controller for Sonos:https://apps.apple.com/us/app/menu-bar-controller-for-sonos/id1357379892?mt=12Lyd:https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id1451243766Good luck! 

I realize this is probably on Apple‘s end of things, but are we seriously stuck using the Sonos app to get Apple Music atmos audio? Kinda sucks we can’t cast Atmos songs to the Arc, in a similar fashion to the way that Spotify works. I know about AppleTV, but that’s not the most ideal. The Apple Music app seems to only allow Airplay. 

I just realized that some time in the recent past the rooms/speakers starting switching their position in the Rooms view if you select or deselect them. It seems to me that it wants to keep the selected speakers at the top and the deselected ones at the bottom, but that is terrible behaviour. If I want to transfer from one room to another now the list gets jumbled several times, and I alwas have to rescan the list and see where the item is I am looking for.If you absolutely must have the selected one at the top, do it only after opening the view, so that the order is kept while the screen is open, and if I close it and reopen it it gets build anew, but like this is is simply confusing. For a minute I thought I was in the Spotify app, that’s how bad it was ;)

I bought my first SONOS years ago, the S1. Absolutely love the quality, it exceeds many in the market.Found the app to be extremely inconvenient, frustrating, and unnecessarily complicated. Years after years I bought more of your product, I waited and waited for you to eventually improve your UX and UI, STILL AS FRUSTRATING AS THE FIRST DAY I BOUGHT IT -ALMOST A DECADE AGO. Setting it up today broke me and was a nightmare, please do something. All due respect to SONOS lovers, I respect you, but I need to be honest otherwise I would die with these words in my mouth. Please don’t try to educate me trust me I tried, I have been using it for years, and still is furious. To anyone in Sonos support, I beg of you, please stop it with the playlist only system for tracks. I just want to play my songs in library randomly. I had to create the playlist containing all my songs from the Apple Music library solely for your app. It was 10,000+ songs that I ticked by hand. You are making me so depresse

Anyone experiencing update error recently on their sonos product? seems like various discussions about this issue? maybe on their software?

I have 2 sonos systems;  one S1 and one S2. I would like to copy playlists etc from one to the other.

I have my weekday alarm set to play Times Radio @ 5am weekday mornings and although the screen is saying that is what is playing, it is actually playing Classic FM ? This has happened 3 times now?

I have a Sonos Amp, and as part of my home air conditioning a Google tablet which I’d like to use to control the Sonos Amp.If I download the Sonos app, I need to run an update and get an error code 1101.I’ve called Sonos who said as the tablet doesn’t have a microphone, I need to buy a Sonos speaker with a microphone to set up Google Assistant, which means I can then control it via the Sonos speaker or the Google tablet.This sounds ridiculous to me. Is this right?

Cannot connect my Sonos app to the WD NAS

Over the past month or so, I've encountered several small but frequent issues with Spotify through Sonos. This is primarily but not exclusively when I use the Spotify app (I dislike the Sonos app).Includes things like:-When I start to play a podcast, it automatically jumps to another, completely unrelated podcast (not even the next one in a queue, or anything as sort-of logical as that). This will happen repeatedly. Eventually I can usually brute force it into playing the one I want but I can't identify the fix.-An album (not on shuffle) will simply stop playing at the end of, say, the third song. Or fifth. Or whatever. The completion bar remains near the end of the song and when I hit play, it will replay the song that just finished rather than move to the next.-No sound. A song or album will show as playing through the correct speakers in both Spotify and the Sonos app. Except it's not actually playing (maybe on some secret frequency the dog can hear- I'll ask her).-Sudden shift betw

For a year or so, I’ve had no problems asking Alexa to play ‘My Soundtrack’ or anything else. I could look at my phone and using the Android App skip etc, now I can only pause, and I can’t see the track. If I start the music from the Sonos App - all works as expected - but - that kind of removes the point of using Alexa in the first place. I’ve tried removing/readding the skill, doing all the usual unplugging etc Anything else I can/should try?
