So….. With the new S1 & S2 controlers now discriminating devices i am no longer able to play the same music in all rooms in my house !!!!!

The 4 play 5 speakers i have in the livingroom can now ONLY work with the S1 controler.

And the bedrooms, Kitchen, Garage & Office only work on the S2 controler.

So im either Forced to buy 4 new play 5 speakers to enable all music in all rooms.

Or live with the fact that after years of excelent service …. Some bright spark at Sonos thinks this is an exceptable UPGRADE !!!!!!!

I THINK IT SUCKS !!!!!

You have already updated some of your players to S2. Don’t confuse “needs update” (which means firmware out of date) with the S1->S2 upgrade.

If I were you I would:

Power down all the s2-running devices

make sure the remaining s1 devices are up to date and all happy

Factory reset one of the S2 devices, and Add it to your S1 system

Repeat this for each S2 device

This will get you an all-S1 system again.

No, S1 and S2 systems can not be grouped. In your case, you’re better off in just staying with S1 for now, until you’re ready to replace the PLAY:5 Gen 1 and the BRIDGE. Then you could move to S2.

Thank you Bruce, what a shame that's what I thought, I’ll do like you say for the time being.
