Controllers & Music Services

I want to stream music from my media server to my sonos  Play:1 devices via upnp, but I can't figure out if it's possible or how to do it. I've checked the "Show UPnP Server" option in the app settings, but I can't find any other reference. Until recently, I had been sharing my music library via samba, but I've found this highly unreliable and would like to move away from it.I do not use Plex and I do not want to.

I am trying to upgrade to the S2 app and cannot get past the terms of use. I view and scroll all the way down but there is not accept or way to acknowledge I agree with them.  

Hi Guys,   My system is currently fully operational on S2. I have no legacy products on the system at all. However When I login to my account on Sonos.com it show under my product two legacy devices. A Sonos controller and a Sonos Bridge. I no longer have these devices. How can I remove them from the list?   Thanks in advance STeve

As of today I can't get the S1 Controlder app to work even though Android 6 should still work? All was working OK yesterday ? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling?    

I play music using my iphone from my itunes app via airplay through my Sonos One speakers. When I am done playing music using my Sonos speakers. I turn off the music. However when I now just want the music to come out of my phone and not the Sonos speakers, they will not disconnect. I try to disconnect from Sonos but it will not let me. I have to turn off my phone in order to disconnect. I called Sonos already and they were not able to help me. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I’m wondering if I can control the volume of my Sonos Port with IKEA SYMFONISK external volume control? I’m also curious to know whether the play/pause function works too? I stream my music using Apple Music and through AirPlay (I don’t open up Sonos App to play my music)  https://www.ikea.com/ca/en/p/symfonisk-sound-remote-white-20370482/

Can the desktop controller be updated to use with S2?  

I have a Sonos system in which all components are on the one network. There are twelve Sonos units (Beam, Connect:Amps and Ones), and two of the Connect:Amps are legacy gen 1s.    I would like to make one floor of my house S1 including the old gen 1 Connect:Amps, and one floor S2 with the remaining units.   Can I have two Sonos systems - one S1 and one S2 - all on the same network? If so, are there any specific concerns, or ways that I need to set this up to make it work well?   Thank you Cal

I have three iOS devices that I use (or used to use) the Sonos app on.An old iPad running 10.3.4 (highest it’ll go to)An iPhone 6s running 12.4.7and an iPhone 5 running 10.3.4 (highest it’ll go to)All were quite happily working the speakers, the iPad was running a beta version and although it said the iOS was no longer supported and I should upgrade, it worked fine.I made the mistake of upgrading to Sonos S2 on the iPhone, assumed it was just a new version as before but it’s rendered the iPad and iPhone 5 unusable.  Downloaded the latest version the older devices supported but they now say they’re incompatible and I need to put a later iOS on there (which of course I can’t do).I saw something about downgrading to Sonos S1 but after installing S1 on the iPhone 5 (last compatible version) it says it can’t be used and exits.What are the options?Am I stuck with only being able to control it with the iPhone 6s until Sonos decides I can’t use that either?Buying new iDevices just to control S

Since upgrading to S1 controller I have had a ton of playback issues.  Songs skip at random spots.  More skipping than playing in entirety.  My system was working perfectly well before the upgrade, now it is almost unbearable.  Anyone have this happen?  Anyone have a solution?  

For some reason Desktop app (both the S1 and S2 version [MacOS]) cannot find my Sonos System. When I go through the ‘Connect to existing system’ flow I get a confirmation dialogue saying ‘This Sonos app is now connected to your Sonos system’, but when hitting the Done button, I’m right back at the ‘Sorry, we can’t connect to Sonos...’   NB: On the mobile app everything works just fine. Does anyone know the solution to this?

Ever since updated to Sonos 2 app after Sonos 1 app told me not compatible with my system of 2 Play 1’s and a Beam.  App has issues responding when connected, then trying to connect to Sonos or other services.  It’s just a wonky piece of junk.  Can’t connect to my music on my computers.  Just been terrible. I had no issue utilizing music from computers before.  Connects maybe 30% of the time to pandora or other services.  Delayed response when it is connected.  Anyone else feeling my pain?  I can’t even get support from Sonos.  Just Bots and no returned emails or people answering phones. They claim Twitter is fastest way to get an answer but they don’t support their twitter customer service anymore.  I’m reaching out for help from community as I’m ready to ditch Sonos for good.  HELP? 

Hi There,  I’ve read through posts on the topic from 3 years ago and haven’t seen a recent update or post on this. Has Sonos updated their product / App to allow you to connect a single speaker to multiple room profiles? For example, I have a Play:1 in my Office, a Play:1 in my bedroom, and then a Playbar, sub, and two Play:1’s in my living room.  I have a profile for my living room, I can make a profile for my office and bedroom, but how can i choose to play music through ALL of these at the same time? I bought these so that they can be connected, and it seems like the only way to do this is to create a profile for the entire house, in which case i would have to either manually mute the speakers in the rooms i don’t want it to play, or delete and recreate my room profiles anytime i wanted to listen to music.  Or, Imagine if you have a speaker inside and one outside. There are times when you would want to be able to play on both speakers for guests inside and outside the house, and

Hello.   Long time Sonos Fan,  we have a number of sonos units all over both homes.   In the past we travel between our weekend place and our home in the city,  open the app and sonos works ( see all the available zones , ect ).    Welcome the new S1 app,  now via the IOS app I can only see the zone in our weekend home,  even if we are not on that wifi network.   Is there a work around ?

I am running SONOS CONTROLLER FOR MAC v.11.1 Under MANAGE, UPDATE MUSIC LIBRARY NOW is greyed out.    This has only happened recently. Is there a solution? My system comprises    

I’ve got a Sonos Port with audio input from an Apple TV, and output going into an amp and speakers (non-Sonos). I can’t control the volume on the amp remotely. I’d like to have a remote to control the volume on the Sonos Port.I know how to configure an Apple TV remote to control a Sonos Playbar.Is this possible for the Sonos Port? 

I wanna buy one, thought I’d better check first though   Thanks Glyn

When I select. Set up new system, and then login with an account I created in the browser, the app says: “Network Problem Check your internet connection and make sure all your products are plugged in.  If you’re still having a problem, check the system settings on this device to make sure the date and time settings are correct.” Well both the internet and the date/time settings are correct. It’s set to automatically sync the date and time, but I’ve tried it manually as well. I think something is wrong with the app itself because when I go to create an account with any email in general, it claims the email exists - even if I have NEVER used it with sonos  

I miss being able to stream baseball to my Sonos speakers.  Just grabbed a Move and even more disappointed now.  Are there any reasonable work arounds?

Does Sonos support Trueplay with the 2020 iPad (7. Generation) and the iPad Air (3. Generation)?

Are the songs on the Hot Country Sonos Station updated daily? If not, how often? How long is the playlist? It seems like I hear the same songs after listening all day. Thank you.

Hello, I am having a lot of problems with the speakers showing up on my device My setup: AMP and Play:1 connected over wifi with an Eero mesh system. In a perfect world I would use Ethernet for all of them but that really isn’t an option. Both of them should have no signal strength issues, and their IPv4s will not change. When I was first setting them up, it was a lot more difficult than it usually is. I would be able to find the device but it wouldn’t connect to the network. After a while of messing with things and a lot of luck, I managed to get both of them connected simultaneously. At which point they worked for a day before I was unable to connect to them through the app. And haven’t gotten it to work since. I have tried several factory resets but nothing seems to get them to work. I can see them to set them up but it just won’t play nice with my network.

So S2 is all white again!    where did Dark mode go

I currently run Deezer Elite -- this is an FLAC stream.  I was told by an audio salesman that while Sonos runs FLAC the audio you actually get is less than CD quality due to Sonos’ own compression.  Is this true? If so, does the broader band of S2 eliminate said compression (or is the improved sound quality only going to be when you upgrade a stream all the way to HD) Would this elimination be immediately audible or do we need to await further updates?
