New Sonos App Update Broke Amp Subwoofer Control

Really trying to understand if I'm doing something wrong here. But before I updated to the new Sonos app, I had absolutely no problems until now. 

 

The new Sonos app completely broke the subwoofer on/off & subwoofer volume control I had for my Sonos Amp. Luckily my subwoofer has a lot of controls on it and I'm able to adjust the volume and the phase control directly on the subwoofer, but I absolutely need to have the ability to control that important function on the app. 

 

Does anyone else have an issue controlling the on/off and volume control of your subwoofer connected to the Sonos Amp?

Finally! The lates app update (80.04.04) seems to have fixed this issue. I now kan enable/disable, set sub-level and crossover from the app. I am using a third party active sub connected to the rca sub out on the Amp.

I was installing a jbl2210 sub for a customer today. He previously had a pair of jbl 28 on his dock so the default on the sub crossover is 0hz so you get nothing. I again sideloaded the apk old 16.0 app on my phone to set the sub up.

Super helpful.  Are you using an android device?  If using IOS then, I will do some research on how to sideload the old 16.0 app.  Thank you!

Same issue. Luckily I didn’t update the app in another Apple device (iPad) so I’m using that to control the sub.

And after that, they work with the new app? Subcontrols work?

Exact same issue here since updating to the new app - also, when now playing music sometimes the external subwoofer gets signal, other times not… Frustrating :(
