At the moment, you can only Manage the library settings using the PC versions of the Sonos program. 

Yes, that appears to be the only way to input the location of the library.  But using the desktop app to play music is not a suitable solution for using the Sonos products.

After you add the library using the desktop controller, if you close your mobile apps completely (or better yet, reset and then “Connect to an existing system”, the library should show on the mobile app.  The queue functions aren’t complete (fix schedule mid-June) but the library is there.

Yes, that works for a bit, but a couple of hours later the music library mysteriously disappears from the mobile app.  It’s infuriating but since the music library always seems to appear in the web app, I’ve taken to using my iPad (the web app won’t work on the iPhone) as my controller.  Not perfect, but first world problems…
