App Feature Request: Add “Force Music Mode” Option for TV Audio Sources

Feel the need to reopen this! Was marked as closed, but I can’t accept that this is not getting the attention it needs. It’s a simple software tweak, and should be easily added through a firmware and software update. In 2025 we love having a GUI while operating our music players, so playing music through TV is absolutely relevant. For sonos to be hardcoded to TV-mode, when source is Line (hdmi), thats just unacceptable for this pricy peace of hardware!

Hope you take note of this feature request, and take it seriously this time.

Hi ​@Pissten 

Thank you - I've marked this thread as a feature request, and it will be seen by the relevant teams for consideration. Keep the ideas coming!

As ​@jgatie stated, the “closed” status of the earlier thread has nothing to do with the acceptance - or lack thereof - of the suggested feature.
