Surround Speaker Distance - 80.0 Update

Does the new (80) update have surround speaker distance? If not I request that it gets added onto the list of missing features. I change my surround distance when friends are over as some spots in my setup may blast their ears.
 

Also I know the new update sucks. I know I can go back with Android. I agree features like the alarm are more important, in fact I want that back ASAP - This is just one feature I occasionally use that I hope doesn’t get missed. I also hope I missed it somehow and it is in there. No I will not set Trueplay and forget. <3

      After the new update on 6.17.24, I found that I could not adjust distance, tv level, or music level for the surrounds. I have an iPhone. I refreshed the app multiple times and it would not work, all it would say in the surround settings for my room was reset, with no other option. I went through a bunch of Sonos Reddit pages and forums, everyone just stated that overtime it came back, or it never did at all. You can’t roll back the update.

      SOLUTION: for me what  immediately worked was completely deleting the app, redownloading it, and then signing back in. Once I did that it began working. I saw some threads saying that sometimes they can see surround settings and sometimes they can’t, it’ll come and go. I have not yet experienced this, I do not know if this solution will prevent that from happening. But as of right now, with what I explained it’s functioning.

        Hi all, I had the same problem. I have the Sonos beam and two Sonos One’s as my surrounding sound connected to the TV.

        After hours of messing around with the phone app and laptop app and going down various rabbit holes. I found a work around! Turn off the TV and on your phone or laptop open a music app. e.g. Spotify, Apple etc. Start your music then connect to Sonos. On the Sonos app go to settings, then whatever you have called your surround sound system. Select it then when it open scroll down too EQ + Surround audio and that’s where you can adjust tv/music levels, speaker distance. 

        Hope it works for you.
