In the FWIW department, I wanted an easy way to spin up all my music to all speakers in my house as well as be able to quickly adjust volume, skip & pause.
So if anyone is interested, here’s the initial version of my little app. MIT open source in C#. Suggestions welcome.

BTW, I mapped my controls to the keypad which I never use - add/subtract for volume, multiply for pay and divide for restart.
I’ve not looked at your app so can’t comment on that. But I’m curious: What was wrong with the “group everywhere” feature of the Sonos app to get music to all speakers? The skip/pause and volume control is also already there in the app.

HotSonos provides a HotKey feature, so no need to focus on App and click etc. A nice feature for those that prefer keyboard interface, rather that mouse/trackpad, and don’t want to focus another App to change volume.
Thanks
I’ve also added a lot of just QOL things. I added a hot key to run a ‘reset/regroup’ of all speakers so when one drifts, it’s a easy to fix. I also have this setup to auto run at 3am so it’s just always clean.
I just added a ‘level all speaker volumes’.
