Get help and assistance with your Sonos system

Sigh. Apologies for being a wet blanket, but after I got the Android lock screen controls, I thought it would be somewhat useful. But,after a few days, I find I don’t make use of it, and it takes a great deal of space in the notification pane. Also, it seems to come and go; it is not consistently there when I play something. Worse, I see now that there’s a musical note icon on my Pixel watch that brings up a mini Sonos controller. This might be useful; however, it is located in the same place as the notification dot, and with my fat finger I am constantly bringing up the controller when I want the notification. I can’t find a way to disable having this on my watch. So, I’d like to disable the lock screen on the app, but I see no way of doing that. Perhaps it is a phone setting, but I haven’t been able to find that either. Any help would be appreciated. I’m on a Pixel 10 and a Pixel 3 watch BTW.

I have an arc ultra, sub four and two era 300s that comprise my home theater surround system. As near as I can tell I should not need to add anything else, but I am wondering if I can.The other thing I’m wondering about is can I take two era 100s Into an adjacent room for the purposes of listening to music or will that conflict with my surrounding system since the second room is very close to my surround system?

I would like to be able to set the volume of certain rooms (that have an amp with external volume control) to a higher (or lower) initial volume. In the living room I have to either turn my external amp way up when selecting Sonos as input (and remember!!! to turn it down when switching input so the tv input don't blow the speakers) or when grouping rooms turn that one room all the way up in Sonos). I like the rooms to be the same volume across inside Sonos so they all reflect the actually volume level.So basically adjusting the delta volume per device when set to variable line out.  I have not found a way to achieve this yet. 

Hi,I’ve two parallel systems - S1 app running some ZP80s and Gen 1 Play 3s, and S2 app for Move 2, Play 5 Gen 2 and Roam.  I have a Move 1 which its just easier to have on the S1 app but tonight the S1 app is now stuck in an update loop; “requires update”, click “not now” and just goes back to the list of zones with the Move showing the spanner and “Needs update”.  It’s also occasionally looping a screen telling me all my devices are S2 compatible and suggesting I open the S2 app to control them.  That’s obviously wrong and will end up bricking my ZPs and probably my Gen 1 Play 3s.  Not sure why this suddently started happening.  Any ideas gratefully received ThanksDave

So I been having this issue where Spotify will not play properly it will skip or stutter ect continually, I have contacted support and told its WiFi issues, then something else and now this see below, so my question is When will this is be resolved? 

Just for fun I made an almost lp size pixelated album art display that is Sonos compatible. Has several modes to alternate between art and title/artist views.

I am trying to connect my new UGREEN NAS to SONOS. After typing in the NAS path and folder the following message appears:The computer (path name)refused to let the SONOS product connect to it.How can I overcome this problem.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Rudolf

Chatgpt says they are gone with the ‘new’ app?? What? I can force them to appear when adding songs … but how on earth do I navigate to them… wonderful ux… gosh 

Anyone else getting this? When you click the play triangle, it shows the square stop for a moment (which shows when it’s playing), and then goes back to the play triangle. The infinite mix channels are fine, but Live on 1 and Live on 2 are not working.

Some of my Sonos speakers don’t show volume sliders in the app and it’s driving me crazy. Audio plays fine and grouping works, but I can’t control volume for some of my speakers. It always ends up that one volume slider remains, while the rest disappear. And this on al my devices, they even show the same volume sliders grayed out.What I’ve already tried: All speakers are on the same 5GHz network, same AP Disabled AP isolation, client isolation - no change Turned off WiFi band steering - no change Played with IGMP snooping settings on my switches - still broken No multicast rate limiting configured Speakers have static IPs assigned Wireshark shows that all speakers are communicating, on both IGMP and SSDP. Even the ones that don’t show the volume sliders. The only thing that works is restarting my router, but even then the problem always returns. Running TP

I have had my Arc Ultra along with two Era 100 and a sub mini for about a month. This is by far the best sound I have ever had watching Movies, TV, etc... I'm incredibly satisfied... But.As title says, when I play PS5 games (only console I have), the in-game volume is way too quiet. The Sonos volume is adjusted to what I like (50/100) and volume is great in everything, TV, AppleTV, watching movies, etc... The volume is also right in the PS5 menu. Like, normal level across all devices. But in-game is way too quiet.My TV (LG C1) audio is set to HDMI eARC on passthrough. The PS5 is set to Sound Bar, Dolby Atmos (tried Linear PCM too). I have tried numerious combinations of these settings. No luck. When I'm in game, the Sonos app reports Dolby Atmos output. (Multichannel PCM 7.1 if I set the PS5 to Linear PCM)The in-game audio settings are not at play h

Hi, I have recently upgraded my entire Home Cinema setup and am getting results I don’t fully understand.When I play Dolby Atmos content (media in local network, often DDP with Atmos) I get different results shown in te Sonos app depending on where I play it:Plex app, client on Sony TV (Google TV) → Sonos app displays “Dolby Atmos”  Plex app, client on AppleTV 4K (3. gen) → Sonos app displays “Multichannel PCM 5.1” My question:Is Sonos simply not ‘labelling’ the audio format correctly in the Sonos app when playing via AppleTV, or is the audio actually being ‘downgraded’ to 5.1 and the Atmos being lost?Just for context, my setup is Sonos Arc Ultra (connected to TV via HDMI, eARC) Sony Bravia 8 II Apple TV 4K (Plex server running on macmini, content stored on NAS)

Album art is working for my local NAS library when I'm selecting albums, and shows in the summary page when I'm playing a track.   But when I look at the queue there's no album art. That's not a big deal when just playing an Album but it's a pain when building a multi-album queue or playlist.  This works on the iOS app, and I thought it was working recently in Android. But not any more. Had something changed? I don't think anything has changed in my set up. I have re-added the music library, but that doesn't help.  

Hi, I have a spotify Basic Family plan, which removes adverts.  When I play via Sonos I get adverts.  What am I doing wrong or is this a known issue. Basic plans - Spotifyhttps://support.spotify.com/uk/article/spotify-basic/

Hello. A few months ago I bought a Sonos Arc Ultra, 2 Era 300s and two Sub 4s. It's working on an 85" TCL TV connected to an Apple TV 4K. The audio quality is spectacular. However, I'm having two problems:When I leave the system off for 10 minutes, when I turn it back on, the sound takes about 5 seconds to be heard. It's as if the amplifiers are turned off and only turn on after receiving a signal via HDMI.The other problem is the lack of volume under certain conditions. I've done extensive research online, and absolutely everything in the TV and Apple TV setup is in line with what's needed to get the best results. I've also tried TruePlay in various ways. Few content can be heard satisfactorily in terms of volume without using at least 70%.For comparison, I also have a Bose 600 + 5" subwoofer, and the volume of both systems is very similar, perhaps a little louder with the Bose.I've tried using the Apple TV output only, but the volume results are the same

The volume slider in Sonos app constantly resets to a very low volume, appropriately 15%. The app is up to date and I have unplugged and plugged in an attempt to reboot system. Nothing system seems to affect this and it makes the entire system useless. Anyone else experiencing this? Any tips or suggestions? Thanks for anything you got. 

I’ve just set up an IoT network on my home WiFi, to improve network security. I’ve successfully added my Play:1 to the IoT network. However my iPhone is on my main home WiFi network. Now the Sonos app on my phone can’t see nor control the Play:1. Has anyone resolved this issue?

I bought 4 era 100 and a gen 4 sub for a TV entertainment room thinking I could connect everything via Bluetooth and make a mock surround sound. However, you can only group 2 era 100s + a sub, so i have to make 2 sets. Bluetooth will only connect to 1 set at a time. I have successfully added the 2nd group after connecting to Bluetooth on my TV, but it rarely works. Looking for any advice to make this work preferably with the least path of resistance and cost. Thanks in advance. 

Afternoon all.Received an email (two in fact) from Sonos offering a 25% discount on range. But when I link to it, it routes to Sonos US not UK.Just curious if it’s applicable to UK purchases? I’m in the market just now.Tried asking Sonos using Sonos live chat but when the Sonos bot has finished with you and tries to connect you to an agent, the chat window just disappears. Don’t know why but is consistent.Interested if the discount is usable here. Anyone know about that?Many thanks

I am noticing that the volume on my Sonos speaker sometimes changes on its own while music or TV audio is playing. There is no one else controlling it from the app, and I am not using voice assistants at the time.This happens randomly and can go either louder or quieter. I am using the Sonos app on my phone and the speaker is connected to my home Wi-Fi network.Has anyone experienced this before? Could this be related to TV remote signals, HDMI-ARC, or another app connected to Sonos?

Hi , I just wanted to know if it’s ok to use 2 x era 300 with a playbar and gen 3 sub . would I need to upgrade my soundbar to use the era 300 pair . thanks . 

I am repeating a topic as posted below and in many other threads. It seems that Sonos have not fixed it. All software updates have been done on my side and yet it still does not work. Is there any danger that Sonos might actually care about their customers?  I found this “closed” topic about Sonos group doesn't work for Airplay.Dgroups no longer working when playing over AirPlaySonos acknowledged that it is a reproducible problem. Yet eight months later, I am still experiencing the

Hi all,I was curious if anyone had come across this issue, or a similar one, with the Sonos Beam (Gen 2) - Audio generating audio feedback? In this particular instance it occurred on the Thor (2011) blu-ray during Loki hammer scene, where Loki attempts to pick up Thor’s hammer. This is the only instance I’ve had of this issue and I’m wondering if it’s possibly the blu-ray itself but before I pony up for a new one, I figured I’d ask here.
