I wouldn’t expect a falling leaf to initiate playback. That may just have been coincidence that a leaf had fallen onto the device.

I just tried pressing objects on the touch controls and they did not register. The touch controls were only activated when the touch was with a finger.

If you don’t use the touch controls on the speaker you could always disable them in the Sonos app.

Just tried with the same leaf, and yes - playback started. Leaf was 0,3" x 2".

Conversely, people like me turn off those controls in the Sonos controller, as we don’t use them regularly. 

I am somewhat surprised to hear a leaf actuated one, but not completely shocked.
