I am building a home and am planning on having 6-8 zones, all of which will have a sonos connect. Is there a solution to provide a hard-wired controller in each zone to control sonos? I have tried iPort express but this is very unstable and has to be reset all the time especially if someone uses an android device to control the sonos in that room.

You can set up a mobile device* as dedicated Sonos Controller, if that helps.

I’m using the Pico for Audio from Lutron Caseta. Works well.
