Fix & Optimize

Why do I keep getting “Unable to load content.” 

Dear all,my Sonos speakers (Sonos Play:5 Gen 1, several Sonos Play:1, Sonon One, Sub, Roam) forget their queue content after power outage. I guess this is currently by design and I have to admit that doesn’t happen often but I have connected my speakers to my home automation (swtch light on > start playing / switch off > pause) and every time when my speakers get disconnected from power (e.g. due to power outage) and restoring power, they boot up with an empty queue and I have to add a radio station again manually to all speakers. It would be nice, if the speakers could keep the last played play list with track and position, radio station or whatelse. I’m not a programmer, but speaker settings also remain after power outage, so in general it should be possible to keep some information beyond power outage. Maybe this should just be considered as feature request.PS: I thought about a workaround via my home automation but it’s difficult for to keep track of the queue information an

Is anyone noticing that their app is having ramdon error:Can’t find systemcan’t find play historycan’t connect to all componentsThen it all works

I can't  reset my Sonos One 

Airplay on my Apple 15 will play for one song then cut out. I uncheck the speaker and recheck it and it will go for another song than cut out again.The odd part is that when you look at it in airplay it looks like its playing (eq bars going up and down)I’m only running one speaker but this happens though Apple Music, Sirius, and especially my music library.  

Randomly, but more often than not, my Beam is muted when I turn on my new TCL TV. The only way to unmute it is through the Sonos app. I am connected via eARC. Once unmuted all is well.

My Roam died and was replaced by a Roam 2. Thanks, Sonos!No problem setting up the Roam back in January 2023. However, I have yet to set up the replacement Roam 2 despite numerous attempts. Asks for my WiFi password then fails to connect. SSID and password are correct.Might be an issue with mDNS?What does the App and Roam 2 expect to be provided by the WiFi network?The App seems to be issuing: Standard query 0x0005 PTR _sonos._tcp.local, "QM" question but not receiving a reply …Note that I only have the single Roam 2 and an Android mobile to run the App. No access to Apple devices or wired Sonos devices.

Had to change my Amazon password a couple of days ago and now there is no Alexa. microphone is off on my Beams and unable to be turned back on either manually or via the app have uninstalled and reinstalled both the Sonos and Alexa apps have made sure both Beams are online.  They both still work (ie can play music through them via phone) but Alexa tells me they are offline Have disabled and enabled the sonos skill on Alexa app multiple times have updated the Alexa app have tried deregistering one of the Beams (but can’t work out how to re-register it as Alexa can’t find it) can’t delete Alexa as a voice assistant as it is not an option - i can see it is listed as ‘already added’ but am unable to delete it.  No option to add any other voice assistants (some have suggested Google) as not given as an option.  Only has Sonos Voice Control and AlexaThis has taken up an unforgiveable amount of time. Judging by the forums there are a lot of issues around this.  Anyone have any other suggestio

Where is the button on the new SONOS App (as of May/2024) for Speech Enhancement while watching TV.   This button use to be on the EQ screen under Sound.   The same screen that allowed you to adjust Bass and Treble and “Loudness” and also has a Reset button, use to have a button for “Speech Enhancement” while watching TV.  BUT, that button is gone now in the App.   Hard to believe that SONOS would eliminate this option.   So where was it moved to?

I changed to the new App in my iPhone and since I have, it has become unusable. It is so unstable forever crashing, one minute OK then can’t connect to my music library saying something went wrong then the next try it does, or saying it can’t find my system or no products found and then randomly going back to the home page.I NEVER had an issue with the old app, it was stable solid worked every time. I have tried re-setting, I have deleted and re-loaded the app, I have also re-booted my router but nothing works. Even as I am typing this, the app on my phone keeps flicking in and out, one second connected, the next not with products not found.This has been an absolute disaster and when I try and go back to the S1 app it will not allow me to.What I cannot understand is that the app on my Windows 10 laptop works a treat, connects immediately to my system, and my library on my NAS and just works.Sonos were/are meant to be one of, if not the best in this game, but with this they have become

My Sonos One has Alexa voice control. If I ask for let’s say, “Play radio 5 live” I get a response in a few words that it will happen but nothing further. Does that make sense? I must be missing something but what? Any ideas? Thanks, John (aka Grierson)

The light on my Bridge is flashing /blinking very fast at least 5 times per second no action on the buttons does anything !! Obviously not dead but cannot include in my setup!!!what can I do ?

I have tried removing YouTube music (premium) from my Sonos system and resetting the app, but this problem keeps happening. Specific songs just won’t play, and are skipped when in playlists.  For example, I cannot seem to play any songs by CHVRCHES or Years and Years. If I start artist radio, for CHVRCHES for example, it will play other artists such as Haim.  These artists play fine if I use AirPlay from the YouTube music app as a workaround, but I’d like to know if there is a fix for the Sonos app?

Hello i have a SONOS three that will not reset. i have reset three other SONOS three and, a connect and a SONOS 1. all were successful. is the speaker dead or do i have another option??? Please help. Moderator Edit: Moved title to thread, adjusted title.

Hello, I have just bought a Sonos Play 5 Gen 1 from a good seller on eBay. The speaker is in great condition ... but ... I can only set it up via ethernet connection and when I subsequently try to use by WiFi it can't find the network. I have factory reset twice but to no avail. Using ethernet is fine but I want the option to connect to WiFi. Any help and advice gratefully received. Thank you.

Is anyone else having connectivity issues with Norton Security on a windows machine? I’ve had to uninstall Norton due to continuous connectivity issues with Sonos across all devices...

A problem with the last update, lost my music library (error code 913) using a MAC computer. I have read the posts from other users in the community and tried multiple work arounds. I called Sonos support, waited for an hour. The tech took control of my computer and could not fix the issue. I was told by Sonos tech support to call Apple to help fix my issue that Sonos created.  That was my tech support experience. I did get a case number with no solution. When is Sonos app update that is going to fix this issue be announced? When is the company going to address the issue and give updates to the solution? 

 I cannot get my Sonos Ace using the USB-C to 3.5mm cable. there is no audio .Using Bluetooth Works Using USB-C to USB-C cable works Anybody have any suggestions on how to solve this?

Can my gen 1 play 5 be used with the new app?

I have a Sonos One and Sonos Arc, both with Google Assistant set up on themPrior to about a few months ago, I could ask Google on either Sonos system “What’s in the news?” and it would play my chosen news source (WSJ)Now, when I ask Google on either Sonos Device, it says “Sure now playing the news!” as expected, but immediately jumps to “That’s all for now” without playing the news audio in between.This implies the command is being received and parsed, but something is wrong with receiving the audio stream for the news itself.Why this is a Sonos problem and not a Google Problem:I also have a Google Nest Audio on the same network, that when I ask it the above, will properly play the news.This confirms its not a home network issue, and not a Google issue, as the Google Assistant on this device as well as my iPhone can properly perform this task.How do I fix this problem?
