    Ugh. I am having this problem also. I was able to play Audible over Sonos a couple of hours ago.  I can still listen to Audible on my phone, but Sonos tells me that access is denied. Have tried using the Sonos app on both my phone and my laptop, removing/reinstalling Audible, re-authorizing, and restarting my Mac. I’m out of ideas. Looks like I’m not the only one.

    Since we downloaded MAC OS 10.15.7 we are unable to listen to Audible on Sonos.  We get an error message that says “Unable to access Audible.  Access is denied.”  Can you please help with this?

    We ran a diagnostic program.  The diagnostic code is 1289885642.

    Thanks Robert Powell

    Same problem here - can we get an update from Sonos support please??

    Also the real time service status shows audible as operational, this thread suggests otherwise. . .

    We are having the same issue. I did reset my amazon password a week or so back but I have reauthorized Sonos successfully. Any ideas?
