Get help and assistance with your Sonos system

I keep having this notification. I wish Sonos had more setting options in the app. More features more functionality. This however has been going on for a month with seemingly no fix. 

I just noticed that my Sonos app says that my Era 100 surrounds are in an unsupported orientation with no further instructions. They are inverted and mounted near the ceiling.  Seem to work fine.  Is this a known issue?

i have two Sonia Era 300s as surrounds they are mounted up side down and seem to be working fine but I just noticed this coming up when going into the app settings anyone know what’s going on?  

Hi,This page lists Sonos products that support WPA3 security. Among the devices *not* in this list (I would personally like to know for a Sonos Play-1 but it'd be nice to have this information for all products) is it known which of them support:WPA2-PSK-SHA256 (use of SHA-256 as the hashing method instead of SHA-1, the latter being cryptographically broken) WPA3-SAE transition mode (WPA3-SAE but with the possibility to fallback on WPA2-PSK in case the client does not support the former protocol)From experience it seems the Sonos Play-1 at least does not support WPA2-PSK-SHA256, but I'd like to be sure as, again, WPA-PSK without SHA256 is cryptographically insecure. Thanks !

Feel like this is a topic that’s seems like it’s been brought up a thousand times prior to the alarm being reinstated, but I swear alarms used to have timers? Ok let me explain myself I had an alarm set for 5am in the kitchen so that when I came down around 5.05am my radio was playing this alarm timed out at 6am and switched off then at 7am another alarm came on playing the radio my partner likes for her to come down to at 7.05 she would leave for work and the “alarm” would cease at 8 and remain off until it went off again at around 5pm before I returned. Do Sonos plan to reinstate this feature? Is it there and I just let can’t see it?

I'm moving to Mexico in the Baja area. building a house that has 3 separate buildings. All walls are concrete. what kind of mesh system will you recommend so I dont have any lag on my music?

I'm trying to connect the Sonos app (version 2.0) to set up a used Sonos Play:5, but I keep getting a Wi-Fi password error. I even created a new SSID without a password, but the same error appears. I also tried using my mobile hotspot with a simple password and even without one, but I still get the error message:"We couldn’t connect to [Wi-Fi network]. Make sure you’re using the right Wi-Fi and password, then try again."Any suggestions?

I have a few Sonos play ones and playbar in my bedroom.  I have the status lights disabled but when the volume is set to zero, the lights come back on. (Hitting mute doesn’t cause the issue). This is a bit annoying because I don’t want the lights on at all, has anyone else experienced this issue?  

 Hi all, I was wondering if you could provide some guidance about a 2nd sub. I'm no expert on the interaction of sub/bass, and based on reading other posts I understand it can be tricky. I currently have the sub in the upper right corner next to the tv, and I was wondering if a 2nd sub would work ok next to the left side of the couch, as that's really the only reasonable spot I have.

The screen feature is gone and I don’t know how to get it back

Somewhat of a beginner here with devices. I have amps in my business and want to connect music directly to the amps via sd card. Is there a device professionals recommend or an alternative to a playlist on sd cards? We have connectivitu issues from time to time so my whole business looses the music when that happens. Thank you for the help!

As with most folks here, I’m mystified as to how poorly software update works.   I’ve had Sonos equip for almost 10 years and it’s been 10 years of pain, with software updates constantly failing.      

I have the Sonos App for Mac, it indicates 16.4.2., is there an update coming?  The mini always displays on top of everything else, the main app is too large, and nothing displays on the menu bar.  You cannot control the Sonos system like this.  Also, the keys on my keyboard will not control the sound, selection or allow it to pause.  This is not a good app and I am hoping as a result of the investment I have in Sonos equipment you fix this gross application/malfunction.  Please let me know the to expect an update….

I gave up on a Roam that had intermittent battery issues and would stop playing after two hours. Can I return it to Sonos for repair & resale? I purchased a Roam 2 and I want to dispose of the Roam.

Our business uses Sonos speakers & app to play music in the business. Sometimes we start playing music directly through the Spotify app, and other times we play Spotify through the Sonos app. When we play through Spotify, others are able to connect to the speakers and play their own music. When we play through Sonos, only the business ipad is able to connect. We don’t want any members to be able to connect to the speakers. Anyone know what this is about or why it happens?

What a disaster.Takes forever to open any music services and some, like Stingray which I have paid a fortune to subscribe to, will NEVER open on the Sonos app….rendering them useless Sonos never updates to tell you the actual song that is playing.  Keeps telling you it is playing the first song you played and never updates.  Brutal. Is Sonos simply shrugging its shoulders over this?  Oh well.  After customers have spent thousands of dollars on their infrastructure and speakers?  

About a week ago, I started getting access errors when trying to play from my music library on my Synology NAS. I am running all S2 Sonos components, and I’ve made no SW changes to the NAS in well over a month. I’ve been successfully running my music library for several years, save for the disaster last spring when Sonos made the major app change. It’s been running fine since the new app stabilized.I deleted the library in Sonos using the PC desktop app, restarted the app, and then set up a new Music Library. The library was correctly discovered, including music I added last week. I can browse to the music I want to play in the Sonos app on the PC desktop and multiple android devices. However, when I try to play the music I can browse to, I receive an "access error." This applies to every album I have tried (several dozen at this point). How can Sonos have access errors to the very music Sonos just discovered?I have confirmed that I can access the SMB share from two phones and a tablet

Hi all,Is there any plan for a function to disable the blue light that shows it is on. I could find it quite disturbing in the dark or in the plane when everyone is sleeping.Think of neighbors and others is unusual .. but yes I do care :)

Hi. My gen 1 beam (and sub) is connected to a LG television. When I turn off the TV (using the remote or asking Alexa) the beam goes silent. After about 10 seconds the beam plays 5 to 8 seconds of TV sound.This is not a major problem but it can be off-putting when I turn off the TV and leave the room only to hear a few seconds of speaking or music. Any thoughts or ideas?

I learned today that when driven by a TV and watching a non-surround source, I cannot control the gain on the surround speakers.It seems to me that when watching TV, say a music video, that the surround speakers should be carrying the normal stereo left and right signals, and I should be able to control the gain on those speakers.For example, listening to a music video, I should be able to treat the Beam soundbar and the two surround speakers as four stereo speakers -two left and two right.Anybody else?

system is dead,  I type in a search and it just spins.

I hve multiple SONOs 1, 5 and a 7   Is there any way they can connect to a Starlink networks as it uses WPA3 Network Security Protocol?

As per the title description. My Play:1 won't show up in the app.... Either in the system settings menu or on the main play menu. All was fine and it was working fine until a couple of days ago when it randomly dropped out. And despite going through (several) factory resets and then connecting back via the app as a new product AND despite the app saying that connection is successful it won't show up. Funnily enough it's the Sonos which is closet to my router. About a realistic 6 feet. And it's worked perfectly until a couple of days ago like I say. And nothing else within my control has changed. Does anyone have any ideas? 

One of the annoying things that went missing with the May updates were some of the Deezer integration features, such as the ability to add / remove songs to Deezer playlists from the song’s more information context menu.Is this a Sonos side update or a Deezer one?Either way, can we have missing features reinstated please? 

I have a lot of compilation albums.  When I go to pick out an album, every compilation album lists each song as an album!  This makes browsing by album impractical.  Please fix this.  I have seen in other postings that this is a known problem, but it is not scheduled to be fixed!  Please elevate the importance of fixing this and get it on the list.
