Nice! Does that also mean that users can link their own Spotify account from a family plan to their voice and each start their own stream on a speaker without stopping the music from another family member listening to Spotify started with theirvoice?

Yes. If you’ve linked each of those Spotify accounts in your Google Home app and set up voice match for them, you should be able to use the different accounts with your voices.

Wow, that is really great!

Is this indicative of Chromecast support in the future?

Hello,

Is it US English only? I can’t find the setting in French (ca).

 

Is this going to be available soon?

 

Thanks.

Hi @Gimrigz.

Welcome, thank you for reaching out to Sonos Community. I totally understand where you're coming from and I’m here to help.

Here are the current countries Google Assistant is currently available.

Let us know if it works. If you need help with any other information, please be sure to let us know.

 

 

It still doesn't support multiple voice profiles, so you can't have multiple people. One of the sonos support team confirmed that today over online chat.

Since all Sonos does is pass the input on the microphone to the voice service’s cloud processing, that would be on the individual voice services. Sonos doesn’t do any processing of voice commands within the Sonos ecosystem. 

Yeah, found how to do it through Google assistant on my device.

Open assistant -> your profile/settings -> voice match -> add devices -> then select the devices you need to give access to your voice data.

This will have to be done for every person outside of the first person who can use the sonos app. Frustrating that sonos doesn't give the instructions for this and trying to open it through the sonos app tries to open google assistant then just goes straight back to the sonos app. Seems like something they should be able to fix and would expect on high quality devices and companies.

Based on this answer, would my problem be in Google's end then?

I have set up voice match for me and my wife but I can’t get the assistant to play songs on Spotify in the Sonos beam when my wife asks for it.
The assistant identifies it’s my wife and tries to play her favorite playlist but right after that, it says it can’t play because it needs the same Spotify account to be linked to the Sonos app and google assistant.

I have both our Spotify accounts in the Sonos app with different names so I expected it to work.

Can you confirm if this is supported or not @Mark P ?

 

Thanks

Hi @leogdiniz.

Welcome, thank you for reaching out to Sonos Community, We appreciate your time and effort in posting your concern here in our community.

Yes, @Airgetlam is correct.

Any voice services are just passing thru Sonos speakers all system process of voice commands are coming from google cloud.

You can also check this link for Help and tips for Google Assistant on Sonos if still doesn't work correctly then time to call Google support.

If you need help with any other information, please be sure to let us know.

Thanks @MarkP 

For may happy surprise the voice match with two Spotify accounts started working this morning. Uhu \o/

Hi @lepord221.

Welcome, thank you for reaching back to Sonos Community.

Glad it works now. 

Did it just work all of a sudden? 

If you need help with any other information, please be sure to let us know.

Yep @Mark P.
The assistant wouldn’t play when my wife asked for it but after a few hours we tried again and it was working.

We experience the problem that Sonos/Google only remember the voice match settings of the last user who set it up in the Google Give app. 

So after i have set it up, Google home on Sonos One does recognize my voice. Then, street my wife links get voice match to the same Sonos One the device starts telling me that it does not recognize my voice.

Thanks - this was the reason that a few of our family members would end up going back to my default account. I had not done this last step, and it was not obvious that this was the issue. 

Link your voice to your devices with Voice Match

Was there ever any resolution to this? We seem to be running into something similar here where both my partner and I have set-up Voice Match on our Sonos One but when she requests music via Google Voice, it uses my Spotify account such that if I’m using Spotify at work on my computer it will say that it’s being used at home.

I’m also unclear how even with Voice Match it would know which Spotify account to use.

I have the issue that my partner does not find the Sonos Beam under Voice Match. It just cannot be discovered... Any ideas how to fix?

 

Edit: fixed it, seems to be an issue with iOS

 

 

However the Beam is still saying that my partners voice is unknown although the Beam is added to her voice match... Will wait a couple of hours...

It knows it because you have two different Google accounts and your Google accounts have it's own Spotify linked to it.

Ok added Voice Match but I still won't work... Any ideas why?

It knows it because you have two different Google accounts and your Google accounts have it's own Spotify linked to it.

 

Where is this happening? The only set-up we’ve done is to add both Spotify accounts to Sonos and then each of us set-up voice match. I don’t remember ever telling Google which Spotify account belongs to which person.

Google Home -> Settings -> Music 

There you can connect your Spotify account to your Google account.

 

I think Sonos App also has to be connected to both Spotify accounts.

 

Ohr voice match is now also working. I had to setup everything from scratch in Google Home and Sonos.

Am I missing something here? 

 

In the OP and on the Sonos support page https://support.sonos.com/s/article/3490?language=en_US , it says, “If you have multiple people using the Google Assistant on Sonos, you can set up Voice Match to provide user-specific responses and content based on who is speaking.”  But this isn’t true is it? Or is it?

 

I have been trying to set up multiple (2) Google Assistant voice matches on my ‘Roam’ and a couple of ‘Ones’.  I haven’t found a way of doing it, and all the information I can find says it is not possible - apart from the above quote from Sonos clearly suggesting it is.  Even the Google page linked from the sentence quoted above says, “This feature doesn't work on .. Sonos speakers”.  

 

I can link one ‘Google Assistant’ account to each speaker.  When asked a ‘personal’ question, Google Assistant will return user-specific results on a speaker linked to the voice of the person asking the question, but will say it can’t answer if anyone else asks. On speakers linked to my own voice (Google Assistant account) I can ask, “what is my name?” and I will get the correct answer.  If my wife asks the same question then Google Assistant can’t answer.  The reverse is true of speakers linked to my wife’s voice. 

 

While I understand (AFAIK) that Sonos doesn’t actually support multiple Assistant Accounts on the same speaker, why on earth does the Sonos Support page say you can do it?  Is it possible or not?  If not then Sonos needs to say so.  What’s going on here Sonos?!

 

Now
 of course
 I expect someone will comment that Sonos can “provide user-specific responses”, but only if the person asking is the one and only person registered to that speaker.  By no stretch of the imagination does this fulfil the full claim that, “If you have multiple people using the Google Assistant on Sonos, you can set up Voice Match to provide user-specific responses and content based on who is speaking.” 

 

I have my Sonos Beam running with multiple Voice matches.

 

You need to configure it properly and maybe need to start from scratch.

If you want to use Spotify for multiple users, all Spotify accounts have to be linked in the Sonos App.

 

Also one point which you could have missed is:

 

Google Home → Profile Icon (top right) → Assistent Settings → Devices → select your device → Personal Events (make sure it's checked)

Google Home → Profile Icon (top right) → Assistent Settings → Voice Match → make sure your device is listed, otherwise add it.

Both settings on top need to be checked on all Google Accounts

 

Thanks for that digaus
  So you’re saying it is possible to have multiple voice matches working on the same device.

 

I have wiped everything and tried setting up from scratch a few times already. The points you mention specifically are already done: Multiple Spotify accounts are in the Sonos app (and respective Spotify accounts linked to our Google Assistant accounts); ‘Personal Events’ (in my app it says ‘Personal Results’) is checked for each device. 

 

When I go to my own €Google Home → Profile Icon (top right) → Assistent Settings → Voice Match] the devices linked solely to my ‘Assistant’ are listed, and the others are listed in the relevant section of my wife’s settings. If I try to ‘Add devices’ the devices linked to my wife appear. When I select one and ‘continue’ I’m asked if I want to activate Voice Match on this device.  But at the next stage it says “Can’t add devices. Ask the person who set up these devices to add you to this home in the google home app”.  But these devices were set up by me, and they are in **my** home app, in which my wife is a guest or other user. If my wife’s assistant is removed from a device, it then becomes available for me to add this device to my assistant. But then that device cannot be linked to my wife’s assistant for the exact same reasons. 

 

Is is something to do with the way we have the ‘Google Home’ set up?  But as I say, looking for instructions from Google, I keep coming back to the page on setting up Voice Match where Google itself says, “This feature does not work on Sonos speakers”. 

 

I’m obviously not the only one having these issues as the interweb is awash with people saying they can’t get it to work.  I wish Sonos would simply provide instructions - or say that it isn’t supported.
