Software and Firmware updates

I just recently updated SONOS but have no idea what was updated and what the affect was. I have searched for the info on that and can not seem to locate any info. Where do I get that info?

The latest update really didn't have much it was all background stuff for what's ahead.

It did bring full support to the new feature in settings to make system ask you what room you want to play to after system has been idle for a while (keeping you from accidentally picking up controller and forgetting to switch rooms from last playing).

Thanks for the quick response. Can we trust that the future settings will include using Alexa to play my local playlists? :?

Sonos has indicated that they want to provide that, but (as always) we're not sure when they'll be able to deliver. It certainly could be in the next release....or it might not.

Local playlists and files. I would not expect within next 12 months if ever. I would not plan on that happening.

Issue resolved - just a frustrated customer who invested significant funds into your product and the controller is horrible. I'd go with an alternative if I could. Each update requires me to add all devices again and then re-group what I want and where etc etc etc. Sometimes it works first time and other times it takes multiple attempts and WiFi router reboots.

Your issues are network related and if your frustrated I would recommend calling Sonos

I disagree with your disagreement; the network is fine until Sonos is involved ...... Look at the people with frustrations and complaints about Sonos. Wake up and sort out your problems please.
