Sonos BBC Sounds service says - 'Radio nnnnn' is no longer available on BBC Sounds

When trying to play any station using BBC Sounds service in Sonos I get the above message since around 10:00 today, has been working fine. I can play station OK using BBC Sounds App on phone, anyone seeing similar?

 

PS - can the mods change subject typo should be BBC Sounds not BBS 😀

I’m having this “no longer available” error, but on the podcasts only, not the radio stations. I’m based in UK.

I see ERROR_RESOURCE_NO_LONGER_AVAILABLE from BBC Sounds podcasts (from the USA). The Beeb need to fix this, and Sonos need to update their status page.

Same problem for me - also based in UK.
Was working fine earlier this morning, but now nothing in listen again appears to be available.

Hi All

The last few posts here, as they relate to on-demand content and not to live radio broadcasts, are a little off-topic for this thread. Please continue discussion on podcasts and other on-demand content from BBC Sounds being unable to play on Sonos devices at the thread below:

Thank you.
