Google Assistant not listening while playing music

I have a Sonos Move, everything was working fine until I changed my wifi network and I setup again Sonos Move and linked to Google Assistant again. After that when some music is playing, Google Assistant stops listening. When music is paused, it listens perfectly, even if i place the volume as low as possible (zero level - no music sounds) the microphone does not work.

 

It was working perfectly before the change.

I’m having the same issue with a brand new Move. Very frustrating considering the cost.

Hi @juanmiguel_mp.

Thanks for your response and effort in submitting the diagnostic.

Upon checking on the diagnostic report, the system detected a sync error that might cause this issue. This condition is usually caused by interference.

Is this only happening on Spotify? Is it working with other commands?

Have you tried to relocate the speaker to see if this is a range issue?

If the issue still persists, please submit a new diagnostic report and reply with the confirmation number so I can check further and see if there’s anything else causing this issue.
