Warning, there’s a new firmware update available 16.2 or maybe it’s 80.00.xx

If you don’t have auto updates turned off now would be the time if you don’t want to risk it, especially if you are still on 16.1

If you update please let us know the good/bad.

I definitely want to know what’s in this update before installing.

I have updated to firmware 16.2 and no issues. It updated all devices first time as well and pretty quick. Usually I need to run the update a couple of times and it takes an age. This one was pretty slick.

Also worth noting I noticed on REDDIT people were now seeing LOSSLESS on Apple Music via the app after this formware update. I am seeing the Lossless tag

I risked the firmware upgrade to v16.2 and now using the latest Sonos app v80.x.x the audio output always wants to default to my Beam in the bedroom, if I select my Era speakers only in the living room then at the bottom of the app it’s still set to the Beam in the bedroom and it changes itself back as well in the output setting. So only wants to default speaker output to my Beam regardless of me changing it.

crap firmware and app now 😤

I am not experiencing this behaviour on any of my devices.

I’ve read about this behaviour with the new app in prior days so likely an app bug. Add it to the list

So does the 16.2 app (from System Update in the 16.1 app) basically install the v80 app ?

I am back on 16.1 and sticking with that (downloaded it to go back after the awful v80 landed)

Oh actually my bad, I may of been getting confused, I was getting the issue described but I did not realise you can slide the volume bar at the bottom up and then highlight your speaker, so it does work ok now.

Not leaving the old S2 app or 16.1 ever

I will be replacing all of my speakers as I can, music in my main room first 👍

hopefully they will fix the new app eventually and I can recoup some money back

I am not interested in a web based app at all, I was asked to beta test this web based system a few weeks ago but I deleted the mail and ignored it, I then turned off auto update on everything as I saw the writing on the wall….
