Mine works through Alexa but not the Sonos App

Have you added the BBC Sounds Service in the Sonos Music Services?

If not have a read of this:-

I can confirm that my PLAY:3s are running S2 currently, and have been since S2 was released.

Just to say, I work in the BBC Sounds product team, so if you have any feedback or feature requests for our Sonos integration feel free to leave them here or on twitter using the hashtag #soundsonsonos

Hi @Kerrianne and @blazinskip, are you still having issues with getting BBC Sounds to work?

 

Presume you’ve seen this? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/help/questions/listening-on-a-smart-speaker/sonos

making sure your Sonos account is set to UK is important

 

 

Great advice, many thanks, at last a straight forward reply that works ! :-)

I’ve tried to add BBC sounds but I keep getting an error message “Unable to add BBC sounds account”. Any ideas gratefully received.

I know it may be obvious but have you checked your BBC account & password

Thanks. I logged into my BBC account and then tried linking from the Sonos app. This worked. No idea why, the password was correct at both attempts!
