Can't AirPlay to my Sonos Amp

I use my Sonos Amp in my home office from my Mac via AirPlay. This morning, I tried to play some music, and it’s not connecting. It shows up in the AirPlay menu in the Music app, but can’t connect. I can stream via AirPlay from my iPhone with no problem.

I recently installed a new mesh wifi system, but that’s the only thing that’s changed in my setup. Any idea what could be going wrong or how to diagnose this?

Yes, that works. I have a breakout box connected to the Mac that has an ethernet port, so Orbi > Mac (ethernet) > Sonos (ethernet) works fine. It must be some odd setting in the Orbi that is preventing it.

I was taking about temporarily wiring the Amp, in order to try and isolate the fault.
