I found a way to do this. Right-click the MP3 file, Cast to Device, and choose the Sonos speaker. You can then attach other speakers and control playback in the normal Sonos way.
Just to add a bit to this, if your Sonos speaker isn't available when you Cast to Device (mine wasn't), you need to right-click and choose Give access to. After doing that, I was able to use the Cast to Device function.

No, hyping third party software is the very definition of spam. Dredging up years old dead threads to hype third party software makes it annoying spam.
