Fix & Optimize

I’m experiencing an issue with the Sonos Ace where there is an audio delay when watching live streams or playing games when connected via Bluetooth. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Will there be a firmware update in the future?

I have an Arc, 2 Play 1’s and a Sub Gen 2.  I am upgrading to Arc Ultra and Era 300’s and keeping the Sub.  I have the Era 300’s now but I’m waiting on the Arc Ultra.  What is the procedure to replace the old components?  Thanks.

Does the Sonos sub 4 have the same power cable as the Sonos gen 3 ?

I’m using a pair of Era 100 speakers in my home office and decided to connect them to my laptop/docking station using the Sonos line-in to USB-C adapter. While both speakers are playing audio, the one not connected via line-in keeps losing sound every few seconds before coming back, almost like it’s cutting out.Interestingly, this issue doesn’t occur when I use other inputs like AirPlay or stream wirelessly from the Sonos app. It seems to be a line-in specific problem.  

My system is so old that it was created in the time where it wasn’t mandatory to create a system owner “admin”. When I try to update, the system ask for verification from the system owner.  I can’t create a new user because the username is already in the system. The speakers is attached to the system… so I’m kind of stuck.  It is old speakers so I use the S1 app. I would like to reset it all to fabric settings  Is there any solution I can try in order to get the system to play again? best regards Torben

Sonos said they finished repairing the problems caused in the spring app update. If so, why are the speakers at my house continue to experience the same problems of unable to connect as it has been for months now. I've updated, Sonos has updated. Nothing here has changed.  Why?

I cannot believe you guys removed the optical input on the Arc Ultra. I had a playbar (which function just dandy by the way) with optical input and bought your hype about how much better the arc Ultra is and I’d get a discount to upgrade. You neglected to mention that the optical input from my system would no longer function and I basically bricked my entire freaking system because I have a Samsung Frame that connects to its controller 25 ft away and brings in optical back to the speaker. You EVEN CHANGED THE FREAKING POWER PLUG and I had to tear my whole TV off the wall just to change out the damn power cord. WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING!?!?!? Guys I can’t begin to tell you how pissed I am right now. I’m going to have to call the sound people who set this up and pay HUNDREDS of dollars just to straighten this crap out. I swear I would love to get my hands on the genius who did this. Especially without putting it ANYWHERE to warn people. 

The power amplifier has stopped outputting sound. all other aspects (front end; WiFi, etc. are still working.  Inside on the main card I found the main amp power supply is supposed to be 36v. In my case it is only 17v. All low volt supplies are present and correct. Has anyone else experienced low supply volts and what did they do to fix it. Can’t find any broken diodes on the board. Does anyone have a circuit diagram?? BR Pete D.

Hi everyone,I recently bought 3 Sonos speakers, I'm slowly building up a sound system throughout my house, and it's turning out great.I also have an Alexa speaker, an Echo Dot, which also sounds good, and I would like to, if possible, have music playing through all the speakers, both the Sonos and the Alexa one. I followed the instructions for everything, but when I want to create a room for a group of speakers, the Alexa app only sees the Echo Dot and the Sonos ones say they are always offline. However, if I ask the Sonos to play music with Alexa, it plays without a problem but only on the Sonos speaker.Has anyone managed to have music playing simultaneously through both Alexa and Sonos?The Sonos devices I have are 2 ERA 300 and 1 ERA 100.Thanks for your help!Regards

Just installed a sub mini to my system (sounds amazing). I’ve noticed the sub audio level keeps resetting to 0 (zero) and I have to reset it to it’s onrigial level (8). Any solution for this?

Hello,I have a pair of Era 300 connected in a stereo pair and a Sub Gen 3 added to that.The problem I’m experiencing is when connecting to LG OLED C2 via Bluetooth the sound drops from the left Era speaker for a couple of seconds every minute or so.I tried resetting the speaker (unplugging for a while and reconnect) and applied all the available software updates, but no luck yet.How can I fix it?Cheers

I would like to connect the soundbar Beam with the speaker Move 2. Is it possible? 

Bonsoir ma playbar fait un bruit bizarre J'ai l'impression que un haut parleur est HS Un petit woofer côté droit...

My fiancee had to change Sonos account email and now we can't control the system at all - it keeps telling us to log in as system owner. On website it also does not show any systems registered to her account. Any solutions besides factory resetting some 10+ speakers?

We have recently bought a new Samsung tv. It does not have digital optical so we purchased an hdmi to optical converter from sonos. However after plugging this into hdmi arc slot on tv and connecting to optical port on playbar, it still does not recognise the playbar. Any ideas on what we can do?

I'm trying to set up a new sonos system and adding a ray to it. It finds the ray just fin and connects to it. But when I need it to connect to my wifi it fails. Have two wifi networks non of them working. And the same when trying to connect it via the Ethernet cable after the 3 failed attempt. Even more strange if I connect it via Ethernet before powering it on then when getting to the wifi setup it can't find any networks. If I enter the network name my self it still fails amd doesn't even give me the chance to use the Ethernet 

Hello, I’m not sure if this bug has been reported here or not so I’m just doing my due diligence so this can get fixed (soon hopefully). Something like this happens: Select Move Gen 1Set up Stereo PairBoth speakers connectListen for chime coming from Left or Right SpeakerSelect Left or Right SpeakerSetting up Stereo pair loading bar appearsThen once it’s connected the speaker with the chime coming from it dosnt play music the other one does. They are both connected and seen as a stereo pair on the app.I don’t have a video of this happening but I can get a video next time I try to configure the stereo pair of Sonos Move Gen 1. Hopefully this can get resolved soon as the Move are great speakers and would love to experience them as a pair! They’ve been functional in the past but now seem to have this issue when pairing. Thank you have a nice weekend.  Zach

I’ve just downloaded IOS18 onto a iPhone 14pro. Every time I start the SONOS app , it crashes. Prior to the iOS update IOS 17 was stable..

Hello everyone. I can't find any YouTube playlists on my sono move 2. Please help. The link to YouTube music is there. Thx Andreas

Have they fixed the having to turn HD on and off with the Alexa skill now? As I know before there was an issue which rectified itself by turning HD off now it says it is playing in HD but the audio doesn’t seem like this is the case.. does anyone have an idea on this as I know the Sonos app version doesn’t need an account so they don’t offer the HD as far as I am aware. Or is the only way to achieve HD is to airplay the station to the Sonos itself?

Beyond frustrated with the new app. My Apple service needs to be reauthorized. Sonos doesn’t let me do this from my PC, which actually functions. It makes me do it from the app, which doesn’t function (and is beyond slow once the new app was introduced). In particular, the app makes me sign in on an endless do loop even though my profile shows up on the app. HELP!!!!

Hi, I have a single story double-fronted weatherboard in Melbourne, Australia that is being extended, restored and built next year and currently planning placement of in-ceiling sonos speakers by sonance and would love guidance and advice on optimal size (6” or 8”) and placement for both 2 x bathroom areas (Bath 1/W.I.R and Bath 2/Laundry) and then open plan living (TV), dining and kitchen area.For the living (TV) area I plan to have Sonos Arc Ultra, Sub 4, and currently 2 x 8” in-ceiling as rears, but thinking it would make sense to have a 2nd pair of 8” in-ceiling more for the dining/kitchen area and for music. The bench that goes from the kitchen through to the dining will have a turntable and was thinking an Era 300… is this too much? or?In the bathrooms, I thought 6” but maybe 8” would be better and in non stereo? unsure on exact placement or how close could have to shower…Bath 1 is 2.9m - could have speaker in/near showerBath 2/Laundry is 2.9m but then there is a skylight above t

Hello I have Sound bar thats connected to a sub, I then have an amp in my kitchen thats connected to wall speakers. For some reason the Tv sound will start randomly playing on the Kitchen Amp speakers for no reason. I will shut it off and uncheck those speakers then randomly again it will start playing at some point. Anyone else have this issue?
