Fix & Optimize

I can see lots of historical posts about issues with Samsung Frame and Sonos Arc, but most topics are closed (some implying the issues are fixed).  Well, I have a brand new Samsung Frame (2024) and a brand new Arc, both running the latest updates, and it most definitely still a problem.  Things will work fine for a day or so, then sound will stop being sent from the TV to the Arc. The TV still knows Arc is there, and it’s selectable as the output for the TV, but the Arc doesn’t seem to receive any sound. After a few seconds, the TV will flip back to sending sound via the internal speakers again. I can re-select Arc as the output get no sound and a short time later it does back to speakers.  When in this state, it doesn’t matter what input is used, what the sound format is (eg Atmos or not). The volume control on the TV brings up the overlay saying “Sonos Arc (HDMI-eARC” but the plus and minus icons are missing.  No setting changes on the TV fix it. No change on Arc settings fix it. Res

HelloApologies if this is a dumb question. I have an Amp wired directly to 2x Paradigm bookshelf speakers and a separate Sub (gen 3) for music playback. I just bought and added an Era 300 wanting it to play the same streaming, but in my kitchen/ dining area. However, when I stream music through my current set up, nothing comes through the Era. What am I doing wrong?For clarity, the Era is on (I think) and it has connected to my system (set up, ran Trueplay) but shows as separate in the app. Many thanks!Max

Hi there, I’ve got a Sonos arc, sub, amp and 6 ceiling speakers as my Sonos set up. The arc and sub are connected via hdmi to my tv.  The 6 Sonos ceiling speakers are connected in the same wifi network. When I play music via Amazon music or spotify I can get the music to play from the tv (arc and sub) and through the ceiling speakers that I group as kitchen.  What I can’t seem to work out is how I get the sound from them all when I’m watching the tv. When I watch tv it only comes through the arc and sub and nothing through the ceiling speakers. Is there a connection that I should be making when playing sound through my tv to get it through the ceiling speakers as well? Thanks. 

Hi there,When I came back from holiday, my sonos play 5 gen 2 was on with a very faint white light. When I tried to play music or connect to my other speaker it was impossible. I unplugged the speaker and it hasn't turned on since. I can't see the control light. What should I do? Thanks. 

Hi,I'm having real usability issues with Plex. I've tried removing and reauthorizing the account etc multiple times. My use case is that I have multiple Plex sources but can't interchange them. so is keeps defaulting to the my childrens source which is smaller (not sure if that's contributing).  I get the “something went wrong” error when I try to changing it to my main source after 10 or so seconds of thinking about it. Workaround is for me to access music that's hosted in my main source  via the playlists option or using search which is hit and miss - often seems to drop Plex from the list of services to search. Strangely I can access an album via this method but not the whole artist - again not sure if it's a content thing. I've loaded the following diagnostic.**Moderator Note: Diagnostic number removed for privacy*

My ARC is not connecting with TV via HDMI cable

I have recently purchased a Sub Mini in order to connect it to my two Play:1 speakers.Initially it would not even connect to the speakers.After about a day of trying, it eventually connected to the room and the speakers. However there was no sound.The sub was dead.After endless resetting etc it suddenly gave me sound. I got about twenty minutes out of it. The next time I turned the computer on it was dead again, and has been ever since.After extensive research all I can find is the usual “it’s not Sonos, it’s your router” diagnoses/excuses.Well, if my router is as bad as so many seem to suggest it is, how is that it has been running my other Sonos Sub perfectly for over five years without one single problem? How is that Sonos still plays my music perfectly too? How is it that my internet reception/speed is perfect too? How is that SKY multi-room boxes all run fine off this supposedly defective router?Before you ask - no - the sub is not too far away/too near the router, neither is ther

I would love to see this feature and it would be what would make me buy a pair of Sonos Aces to replace my current headphones. Use case: I work from home in the same room with my significant other (SO). We both listen to music on our Sonos speakers all day while working. However, at some point my SO starts taking calls for a while. During this time, she still wants the music playing in the room, but I need to have headphones on to block out the sound of the phone calls. So I put on my headphones, pair to Bluetooth, and have to open a second music streaming service to play music in my headphones while leaving the Sonos system playing music for her. This is annoying on a day to day basis. I would LOVE to be able to just slip on the Aces and pick right up with listening to the same music in the room and not have to get on my phone and start up a second service, etc. Honestly, this is the only use case I can imagine getting the Aces for given I have my Sony MX4s. 

I’ve already contacted SONOS and Denon tech support on this one. It’s odd to say the least.History: I bought a single SONOS Roam 2 to test via bluetooth with my Denon AVR 760H. It worked after I got help from Denon (Did a POWER RESET, and a NETWORK RESET). Bluetooth connected just fine and it sounded nice. It even worked nice with my iPhone. During the setup of the SONOS Roam 2, I was never prompted for a number on the bottom of the speaker.Based on the aforementioned test results, I ordered a second SONOS Roam 2. When I received it, I plugged it in to set it up. During the setup, I was prompted for the number on the bottom of the speaker. This was new to me because the first one didn’t ask. Also during the setup, the speaker did a firmware update. I tested it alone via my iPhone, and it worked perfectly.I plugged the first Roam 2 I bought back in, and it did a firmware update. It also asked me for the number on the bottom of the speaker this time. I found this odd. I reprogrammed the

Hi, anyone else having this problem? Seems to be reoccurring and the answer has been to power cycle (done 2x) and system outage (there isn’t one). I have a new Sonos AMP purchased June 2024, when I change the volume limit (50% for instance) it resets to 100% after a few seconds (you can actually watch the slider just move back up). I typically stream from an iPhone using Spotify, so to test I am playing Sonos radio with no other devices. Same issue. In fact you can slide limit to 10% and it doesn’t change the volume output already coming out of the device that is higher than that level. Cycled the amp, same issue.  This is important as the Amp blew out my last set of house speakers when my spouse accidentally connected her phone with the volume too high. I’d like this set to last a bit longer. All advice welcome!  

Volume control not working on iphone/iPadis there a way to fix? It use to work….😳😡

Hi, whenever I request that Alexa play song through my Sonos system, it will play through the 2 One SL‘s set up as a speaker pair, but not through the sub. They are all paired as a system through the Sonos app. If I Airplay or use the Sonos app it works as intended but only when I request through Alexa does the sub not play. The 2 One SL’s play as the stereo pair but nothing comes from the sub. What could it be??

2 things:1. When alarm sounds in morning, My phone screen used to come on with option to turn it off or snooze. Since the May update, it doesn't do this anymore. Is this coming back sometime??2. Alarm music selection used to allow to search our music subscriptions (e.g. YouTube music) and choose music to play... Now it only gives options for sonos radio or sonos favourites... Why?? 

Is there a difference in audio quality between the beam and arc using audio swap with sonos ace

Play:1 speaker won't group - is visible in Sonos2 app. It'll play as a solo speaker but when trying to group will get “unable to connect - try later” message

what size are the 2 short attachment screws used (in the back) to attach Ray.  I have bracket to attach Ray to portable TV stand.

I have had a Roam for the last couple of years and it has mostly worked well.  I do not like the new app, but I like the Sonos ecosystem and decided to expand the system with an Era 100.  I thought I would be ok as I suspected that the app issues were related to large/complicated Sonos setups and that progress was being made on system stability.But I am now having issues where songs from a Spotify stream just skip after playing for 30 seconds or so.  It is an intermittent problem, but I just had 5 songs in a row skip.  I mostly use the speakers as a group - both playing.Is this worth taking up with Sonos support given the intermittent nature of the issue?  Do you know if Sonos keeps an internal log of song skips and the reasons behind them?Feeling deflated about my new purchase.

As the subject says, most of the time the music library option is missing from my iPhone (and more recently SonoPhone) app, and when I try my Mac Sonos (v16.2) ) app, I can see that it’s forgotten/removed my NAS settings. \\SONOSSERVER\MUSICThis is based on a Synology NAS DS720+ running DSM 7.2.1-69057 Update 5 Any ideas why this has started happening more and more in recent months? Many thanks in advance Jonathan

I have a SONOS BEAM Gen 1 (I think) and recently brought a new TV. Now I can’t get the beam to connect to the new TV. New TV supports HDMI eARC rather than ARC, but everything Iv read online says that shouldn’t matter. No option to optical connect either. Any ideas or suggestions would be great thank you. 

I had a previous problem with this and some renaming and file sharing settings took care of it. It has popped up again and the previous suggestions don’t seem to be appropriate.  Any ideas? Hold time on the support line is 60+ minutes.

We often use our move as a bluetooth speaker.When we want to pair it, it is often not detected by the device we want to pair it with.If it is on, it randomly wants to connect/ pair, and if something else is playing on another bluetooth speaker, it switches to the move without us wanting to.What is the issue here? What can I do to fix the issue?Thanks a lot!

I have recently Bought an Arc, two Era 300 and a sub mini which I use as a home theatre system.  My system keeps disconnecting from the app and I have to turn them all off at the power and then reconnect them all to the app and then pair them. This is becoming exceptionally frustrating and not what I expected from Sonos products.  Any help or troubleshooting would be really appreciated. 

Hi,I have a Sonos Wave 2 which I control using the Android App on my phone or, as is my preference, the Windows App loaded on my PC.  My brother who is in the same household, has a Sonos Roam which he controls using Alexa (I do not use Alexa).  We are on the same wifi network.When I am listening to music, if my brother turns on his speaker, the Windows App shows his account details.  I can see his speaker and his music etc even though what is playing is what I had selected (and I can still control via the Android App on my phone).  Effectively, when my brother uses his Roam, the Windows App ceases to enable me to control my Wave 2 as I can see no way to switch from his system back to my own.I am aware that sharing the same wifi network will mean I can see his system but there must be some way that I can either block his Roam from taking over my Windows App or at least being able to switch from his speaker back to my own.  I have just uninstalled the Windows App and reconnected my speak
