I’m using a Sonos Era 100 stereo pair connected via Bluetooth to a Google TV 4K streamer. I’m really impressed with the sound quality, but there’s an issue — the audio sometimes stutters, as if the left and right speakers momentarily hiccup. It feels like a plane gliding smoothly but suddenly hitting air turbulence. This happens about once every 5–10 minutes.Is there any way to fix this?no issue with wifi streaming, 

I’ve been a loyal Sonos user for years. Two or three years ago, everything worked flawlessly — I could ask Alexa to play music, group rooms instantly, and enjoy a reliable system that just worked.Now, it feels like a never-ending battle just to get sound playing. Speakers constantly drop or need to be re-paired. Alexa almost never works — I keep getting “station not found” or similar messages — so I always have to open the app manually to start music. Even then, certain speakers show up while others disappear and then reappear minutes later.I’ve spent hours trying every fix I can find online: rebooting the router, reinstalling the Sonos app, re-pairing speakers, resetting Alexa, rebooting devices, toggling between my regular Wi-Fi and 5G network… nothing provides lasting stability.It’s incredibly frustrating that a system that once felt bulletproof has become this unreliable. I really hope Sonos acknowledges the ongoing connectivity and app instability

Sonos Arc here.  Pretty much at my wits end on setting up my Sonos Arc using Trueplay.  Trueplay worked fine right out of the box.  Since then have rearranged some furniture in the room and wanted to run Trueplay again.  Now has background noise problems when I try to run it.  Everything turned off, everything has been rebooted, access to my iPhone 14 microphone is fine, but every time I try to run it there is always a background noise error message. Nothing is running.  No one is making any noise.  Very annoying.  The one thing I have not done is to call Sonos.  That will probably be my next step.

Hello all. My father in law has a play 3 in his dining room, playbar in the the lounge and we bought him a play 1 for his garage.Up till now he has run home wifi with a sonos BOOST in a room closest to his garage to help the play 1 work.  However recently he wanted more wifi signal in his garage and workshop so he bought a uniFi wifi switch which by the sounds of it creates a network extension into his garage. Now the Play 1 works for a while and is spotted on the app. But then starts to drop out and then eventually sonos app can't find the play 1 at all.  To add to the mystery he plugged in a play 3 in the garage and it worked faultlessly and has yet to drop out or disappear.Neither one of us are network orientated. So any help on why the play1 is misbehaving would be great. His words are below of the issue: "Ref sonosHouse WiFi is supplied by Vodafone. Cable from Vodaphone router to UniFi switch. So h

New Sonos devices drastically reduce my wifi speed. Like a lot. Can’t work. And yes, my router and service are fine.

Since the last update, I’ve been having issues streaming from Sonos Five. I’ve noticed in my router logs it seems to be switching from Ethernet to Wifi and have no idea why. My Sonos Five is connected directly to my router by a ethernet cable. Over the years, I have had more trouble with Sonos than any other device. 

We have just bought a Sonos Arc that we have connected to our Sony TV via the HDMI Arc port using the cable that came with the Sonos. We have a Sky Q box connected to the TV via another HDMI port. The sound settings on the Sky Q are set to Dolby Digital Plus. We’re impressed with the sound quality.However, we can’t hear any sound from certain channels, including the YouTube App. We also get no sound from YouTube if we connect to it directly from the TV rather than via Sky Q. I’m presuming this is because those channels that are ‘silent’ are not broadcasting in HD? If we set the Sky Q sound setting to Normal we can’t hear any sound at all through the soundbar on any TV channel.Any ideas?Thanks

I am running a Sonos S1 controller with a series 1 Sonos 3, Sonos 5 and Connect.I have been trying to set up a music library on my Western Digital NAS, MyCloud Home, but keep getting the reponse error 900 which then wants me to change the server stack in my windows registry.Is this for real? Surely there must be some other way? 

My setup is for TV surround sound. A SONOS Play Base connected to a TV, via optical cable with a SONOS Sub and two SONOS Play 5s and all was working fine until my TV broke.I bought a new Samsung TV (Samsung QLED QEF1 4K), but it doesn't support optical output. Most of the new TVs available don't seem to support optical output, and I know the SONOS Play Base only accepts optical input.The TV has HDMI ARC, so I tried to find a solution - HDMI ARC output from TV to Optical input to Play Base, with a converter of some sort. When I contacted SONOS support, they told me no such solution exists and to buy either a new, different TV or a new SONOS sound bar product.ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS PLEASE??Yes I know there is a  Optical Audio Adapter | Sonos : from SONOS, but this o

I have a Sonos system set up separate from my hi-fi system. I would like to stream my vinyls over my Sonos. I will buy the amp ( or port) but I was wanting to stream over the new Ace head set as well. Does the Ace connect to the Amp or Port. Is there a away to listen to my re ords on the new Ace. Or do I have to continually wait for a fully integrated headphones ( that we have been promissed)Thanks

have a monitor asb-2 soundbar that is now more than 10 years old. i also have a Panasonic 65" EZ952 OLED 4K UHD TV that was bought in 2018. i also have a Sonos Z80, Youview box, Sony DVD player and Roku box. everything is connected to the ASB via HDMI and the soundbar is connected to the TV through ARC. The Sonos Z80 is connected to the soundbar via an optical cable.i’m considering upgrading my soundbar to the new Sonos Arc Ultra. however it seems there is only 1 HDMI port on the Sonos and the TV only has an older version of ARC and not eARC. it seems that very few soundbars have HDMI ports either.what is the best way to configure the system if i use the Arc ultra (which doesn’t have HDMI pass through either).

My Sonos setup:4 rooms:Office: Stereo pair of One Gen 2 (left) & One SL (right) (both on 5 GHz wifi) Living Room: Sonos Beam Gen 1 (on 2.4 GHz wifi) Kitchen: One Gen 2 (on 5 GHz wifi) Bedroom One Gen 2 (on 5 GHz wifi)All running the latest Sonos firmware (91.0-70070)My network:1x Eero Pro 6 (running the latest Eero firmware)(I used to have a second Eero Pro 6, but I’ve recently found that a single unit provides sufficient coverage for my whole house. So I removed the second unit to avoid creating additional interference.The problem I describe below occurred both before and after I removed the second Eero.)All Sonos speakers have reserved IP addresses.-The issue:I’ve found a strange issue when airplaying to the stereo pair in my office, if I try to then move playback to another speaker (still via airplay):

Hello - I have 2 x Era 300s on a wifi network and would like to add a couple more smaller speakers to the system to fill out the room. Usecase is music in a midsized room.Budget is an issue so looking at second hand, will older models like Play 1 do the job? Any older models that wouldn't work?Thanks.

was playing a playlist streaming from apple music on ARC+Surroundsuddenly it all went silentthe app showed it was playing, but nothing was heardexited the app - started backi now saw the ARC was not listed (all other speakers listed)suddenly after 20'ish seconds the ARC showed again, but playlist wiped - i assume it restarted but I had not seen any blinking lights on the ARC. Submitted diagnostic **********Logged in to Sonos webiste and see there it say my account was created today, which is far from reality. Sonos, what’s going on?This has happened twice in 3 weeks. Last time it happened i saw the light on the Arc blinking whilst starting up… Moderator edit: Recorded and removed diagnostics numbers

I lost WAY too much time on this issue.If it can help at least one person to not lose as much... Turns out that, if you are using your Sonos in a Dual-Stack Environment, if you only get Name-servers over IPv6, Sonos is unable to use them. Your name-servers NEED to be reachable over IPv4 for Sonos to work. Hopefully, this bug gets fixed soon as more and more ISP’s are transitioning and leaving the legacy where it belongs.

I attempted to listen to a Pandora station and nothing is happening.  I’ve removed my pandora account and readded but still unable to stream.  I’ve rebooted by Sonos speaker and no luck.  I can stream SiriusXM but not Pandora.I have verified that Pandora is working through the Pandora app.I’ve tried on both an Android app and from a Mac Mini and both show the same thing.Errors I’m getting have been Network issues or something went wrong.Anyone else experiencing this?  I’ve submitted diagnostics *********.Moderator edit: Recorded and removed diagnostics number

I have a Sonos Arc.  When I took the soundbar out of the box after purchase the set up when fine.  Everything worked including all controls.  Since then the EQ has stopped working and also the loudness selection.  The speech enhancer works just fine.  You can use the sliders for bass and treble but it has no effect on the sound.  I tried a factory reset and reboots of the internet connection plus reinstalled the app but these controls still will not work and have no effect on the audio.  All updates have been done.  I am very disappointed and am afraid that this problem will keep me from buying anymore Sonos products or giving a good recommendation if asked.

Hi Why doesn't Sonos release a Sonos music app like Spotify? Seamless music in 24bit quality.Would maybe solve a lot of issues with various music apps.Maybe one day?

Jeg har problemer med at blive i Sonos S1 AppNår jeg åbner S1 Appen går der ca. 10 sek. Så hopper den automatisk over i den nye Sonos app.  Skal bruge S1 Appen til min Play 5 ( 1 gen. ) Syntes jeg har forsøgt alt det beskrives man kan gøre, men uden held.  Er der nogen der har nogle tips og tricks ?

Can’t submit diagnostics report. Spotify not working through Sonos S2 or Spotify Connect. This is a constant problem.  reset products. Reset wifi. Tried everything. I feel like this is a major flaw in the S2 app that continues to get worse. 

Hi, I need to update my bridge on my sonos Play 1 and it doesn’t work. I’ve rebooted everything (sonos, mobile and wifi router) and I still get the message « There was a problem setting up your bridge. Our customer care is ready to help ».  The problem is I cannot listen to the radios any more. Thanks a lot for your support!

I have recently wall mounted by Sonos Beam Gen 1 to the wall underneath my wall mounted tv. up until that point the beam was working perfectly with the tv volume. Now the tv volume won’t play through the beam, air play works fine through the beam. The beam is taking control of the tv as it usually does because it has disabled the tv speakers as it usually does but no tv sound is coming though the speakers, I’ve cross checked everything, switched off the Beam, reset my WiFi hub. went into the Sonos app and tried the TV connection and it says ino connection to TV but the beam is connected properly?? Can anyone help? Thanks
