New Sonos App Update Broke Amp Subwoofer Control

This upsets me to no end i adjust my bass volume up for watching movies on my deck. I have been doing a side load of an old version apk on my android. But damn sonos still auto updates my app without permission.

Yes, I have the same issue with a Cambridge Audio sub, the Amp’s sub controls have no effect on the signal to the Sub currently and I have to control the level directly on the sub.

Is it supppsed to be like this?

Is it Sonos way to force us to buy their Subwoofer?

The Amp has an RCA sub out so it’s built to support 3rd party subs. I doubt the bug in the app is there to force people to buy new kit. I have certainly put off any potential future purchases since this app’s release. I was looking at an Era 3’s and Arc with Sub but have serious doubts now.

I use a Crown amp to power the jbl 2210 for my deck. Sonos doesn't make a outdoor sub at this caliber.

I have experienced exactly the same issue.  Sub controls have been rendered useless for phase control, level and cannot be disabled which means crossover is always enabled.  I use two Sonos amps for my outdoor patio and have one connected to a sub amp which powers an outdoor sub.  The other amp with no sub.  The system was working harmoniously and perfectly blended until the latest app which completely ruined the ability to blend the sub and mains and sub optimized the use of a second zone without a sub.  Terrible release.

No and to be honest I think that's a far stretch. It's pretty clear to me that it's just poor planning and poor programming on releasing this new update. It is filled with bugs and issues. 

So it will come another update? What do you think?

Is there anyone who talked to Sonos about this issue? I hope they know there’s a problem…

Well it looks like two subsequent updates have been released.  One of the updates includes support for Apple Lossless Music which is great.  Still no fix for the sub controls on Sonos Amp.  Ugh!
