I would like to control the volume of my Sonos (controller) by pushing the standard volume buttons of my Mac. Similar to what you do with the Android volume button (or the iOS volume buttons, I assume)

      They'd better figure this out before that new Apple smart speaker launches or they're going to be losing a lot of market share. I like the product and sound quality a lot, but the entire SONOS music interface is LONG overdue for a redesign.

      I support this feature request, but I also have some good news for those who use Spotify.

      I installed an app called Finely Tuned, and it has the ability to sync the spotify volume to the system level. That means you can use system volume shortcuts F10,F11 and F12 to control spotify volume.

        Hi there. Was just reading this and have managed to map the keyboard shortcuts for Vol Up (Cmnd 🙂 and Vol Down (Cmnd -) to BTT (and I only found those by accident) but I don't know what the keyboard shortcut to mute Sonos is. Anyone know please?

        Is there a list of Sonos keyboard shortcuts anywhere?

        EDIT: It's ok, I found the list in the Help menu! D'oh! 😉
