Google Assistant and Sonos

Hi everyone,I'm based in the UK and had Google Assistant running smoothly on my Sonos One until last week. I decided to switch to Alexa temporarily and update the Sonos app. However, I couldn't get Alexa to work satisfactorily, so I tried to revert back to Google Assistant. Since then, I've been unable to re-enable Google Assistant. Despite several attempts at resetting the app, rebooting the device, and trying again, I keep encountering the error message: "Google Assistant is not available in your country."This is puzzling because Google Assistant was working fine before, and according to the Sonos support page https://support.sonos.com/en-gb/article/google-assistant-availability-on-sonos), it is available in the UK. It feels like Sonos is blocking me from using either Google Assistant or Alexa now. I’m concerned that this might be an issue to push for upgrades, which I’m not willing to do after this experience. Has anyone else faced this issue? D

I recently bought a Sonos Beam Gen 2 with the hope of having the TV connected to it and using it as a Spotify Connect speaker. It’s been working fine until I tried to enable the Google Voice Assistant. In their app, I start the process, but then the Google Assistant app opens and says no devices found.I have the latest Sonos iOS app and the latest Google Assistant app. The mic button doesn’t do anything when I press it, and in the app, the mic shows as “Disabled.”I’ve already tried to re-pair and re-add it to my account, restarted my router, and restarted the Beam itself. I have plenty of other devices that can be added to Google Assistant without any issues. It’s just this Beam.I also have a Sonos One that has no issue connecting to Google Assistant. I’ve reinstalled the One multiple times just to ensure it works properly.I contacted customer service and explained the issue. The representative claimed that there was an issue with Google Assistant and tha

Why does my speaker delay the music resuming after asking for the volume to be turned up/down for approx 30 seconds or when I ask for next track I miss the start of song as the sound is delayed for again 30 seconds  I use Google assistant as my voice assistant on the arc 

I have a few recurring issues with google voice and my Sonos ones. Either when I ask to play a radio station the response is OK playing xxx radio station. Sorry I can’t find what you asked for.  Or sometimes when I ask to play artist name I get Sorry I can’t do that here but you can ask me to play it on one of your other devices.  And sometimes this commands work… wondering if Alexa might be more helpful? We use Google WiFi and have a WiFi point in the neighbouring room to one of the Sonos ones and I wondered if this might cause something funky to happen as I don’t think this was a problem until I upgraded the WiFi points and now have one which is voice enabled. Can anyone help? Please!

I've encountered an odd issue. Using Google assistant I've set up a routine where by when I say goodnight my lights and tv power off. The odd part is that when the earc connected tv turns off the Sonos status light turns on. (yes I have it toggled off in the app) to turn it off I have to touch either volume up or down. It's not a big deal I'm just curious if anyone else has experienced it.

I've recently set my Sonos One Gen 2 as default speaker to my Google Nest 2nd Gen, without any issues and playing music though Spotify is fine but I can't stop it by voice command, can anyones help? 

I have 3 rooms with sones Arc and One speakers.It has been working fine with voice control for years but suddenly they do not reply. The voice touch on/off function on top of speakers do not work anymore. I can not turn them on.I have tried to reset the speakers but it do not help.Have anyone tried the same or now what can be the issue?

Hi, in Era 100 (2 laudspeakers set as stereo pair) I have an allarm, which starts every day at certain hour. Howevet this allarm is not visible in application, so I cannot cancel it.Anybody knows what to do to cancel it?

Hi there,Over a year has passed and Google Assistant is still not available in Poland... I dont understand the reason behind this. It is not that Google doesnt support this in Poland, since it is working very good on other devidces.When Google Assistant feature will be available in Poland ? Is there anything happening to make it work ?Alexa is available, but frankly speaking its a mess… But please dont reply with availability lists and that its a Google problem, not Sonos. I realy dont think it's a Google problem... Or maybe someone has a way to make it work ]:→ ?  

Buongiorno, sono un nuovo utente del sistema Sonos. Posseggo solo un Era100 regalatomi da mio figlio lo scorso Natale. In merito al suono avvolgente riprodotto non ho nulla da ridere, anzi, è perfetto, ma sui servizi accessori integrati nel sistema dell'Era100, devo dire che siamo molto in alto mare!Dato il costo per l'acqua dell'altoparlante, una persona normale pensa di trovare chissà perché è compatibile con il sistema e invece una grandissima delusione!!!Riproduzione musica limitata e assistenti vocali compatibili solo con Sonos e Alexa.Dotazione di sistema molto scarsa!!! Si pensa ad esempio agli assistenti del comando vocale: Sonos è praticamente initile in quanto risponde solo in inglese, Alexa è stupida in quanto è limitato dato che non ha un browser aperto come proprio motore di ricerca e google? Google scopro che non è compatibile con questo sistema... 300 euro di altoparlante e nessuna compatibilità con l'assistente vocale Google, se non attraverso un

Asking this again. It has been years now. When will you get sounds working on Google assistant on Sonos? It is clearly Sonos' responsibility more than the BBC or Google to fix this. I end up listening to BBC on my crappy Google home devices when I have an expensive Sonos system sitting next to them. Sort it out please! Not buying Sonos again.

I cant add the assistant on my Beam.It stopped working couple of weeks ago.Anyone who has a solution?

I have 3 rooms with Sonos speakers with voice control About when the new update came the voice control has no function. It is not possible to activate and deactivate on units with touchAnyone with same experiences?

Bonjour,j’ai une barre sonos Beam Gen 2, avec en support 2 Era 100 qui sont configurées en Surround.je souhaiterai installer sur la Beam Gen 2, mon assistant vocal Google : impossible.Les enceintes sont à jour, les applications également (iOS), elles sont toutes sur le même réseau. Dans l’application Google home, les produits sonos apparaissent bien, mais lors de la configuration, ça ouvre ensuite l’application Google Assistant qui cherche une enceinte sur laquelle installer l’assistant vocal et elle ne la trouve pas.vous avez une solution ? J’ai déjà dissocié avec Google et Sonos, j’ai déjà éteint toute ma box … j’ai acheté ces enceintes mi-mai. Il y avait donc la nouvelle application Sonos lancée. Moderator Edit: Google Translate- Good morning,I have a Beam Gen 2 sound bar, supported by 2 Era 100s which are configured in Surround.I would like to install my Google voice assista

Recently got the Beam Gen 2 and couldn’t be happier...until I tried playing Spotify via Google Assistant voice command. Every time I say “Hey Google, play XXXXX on Spotify”, it just says “Ok, playing XXXXX on Spotify. Sorry, Spotify Premium isn’t currently available.” Have tried everything, including the following steps:Unlinked and relinked everything multiple times — Sonos app, GA and Google Home. Ensured voice integration is sorted — all other GA commands work fine. Spotify set to preferred music streaming on Sonos app and GA. Checked that it’s indeed Spotify Premium account. Even created a new dummy account from a free Spotify Family plan.Any advice?

Merci de votre réponse.  Moderator edit:Google Translate- Hello, the new Sonos application does not work at all. Doesn't support Google Assistant, gets the requested radios wrong, answers next to the question.What to do ?? Thank you for your reply.

HiI read that Google Assistant will be remplaced by Google with Gemini, the “chat-gpt” of Google. Will Sonos will replace Google Assistant by Gemini on Sonos One ? Thanks

I listen to my music through Sonos speakers and use Google assistant on  hubs to voice control these.Up until this week BBC radio was available on TuneIn the radio app which Sonos used to radio stations. This now doesn't work which is fine as it advised I linked BBC sounds . I can listen to the BBC through the Sonos app all good. Problem is if I ask assistant to play BBC  radio 1 on sonos the reply is " playing BBC radio 1 from tune in " this results in silence .  I've deleted TuneIn from Sonos and it's still doing it. Even if I use the command "play BBC radio 1 from BBC" it either doesn't understand or just gives the same playing from TuneIn reply.  It also does it for all stations like radio X or heart . What command can I use or change stop assistant using TuneIn ?Thanks sarah

Ich bin neues Mitglied hier und besitze aber mittlerweile einige Komponenten. Von der Play One mit der ich angefangen habe bis hin zur Beam.Alle meine Komponenten manage ich seit Jahren mit der Sonos App. Bislang war ich sehr zufrieden.Jetzt mit der neuen schwarzen App reagiert alles sehr langsam. Mich an neue Dinge zu gewöhnen, ist nicht mein Problem. Meine Bitte geht dahin, daß die Entwickler bitte eine Überarbeitung durchführen, damit die App im neuen, alten Glanz erstrahlt. Danke.

My Google Nest works fine, responding to my voice.  My Sonos works fine and has an Alexa Dot attached to it.  I am trying to make my Google Nest play/respond through my Sonos system.  Due to the age of my devices, I am running the Sonos S1 Controller on my Android.  When I choose Services and Voice and under Voice select Add a Service, I am given a choice to select Google Assistant.  However, when clicking Add Google Assistant, nothing happens. Sonos has been added in the Google Assistant app directly. Suggestions?

I cannot conect my Sonos Era 100 with my google home. They writed: not supported in czech republic.Can help me?

Hi All, I have a Sonos beam and I use Google assistant.  I would like to get the assistant to not repeat the command or describe what it is doing. For example if I say “Hey Google, turn out all the lights” it will say “Alright, turning off all the lights” and also do the command. Is there anyway for it to do just the command and not talkback and say “Alright turning off all lights”  My partner is going crazy and to be honest I find it a little annoying as well. Depending on what sound level it's on it's either extremely loud or very soft. Any help would be much appreciated. 

Several months ago Google Assistant started responding “I didn’t understand” to commands in Google automation routines that were supposed to announce something on the initiating Sonos speaker. This bug is still present and I don’t think it was ever acknowledged or addressed by Sonos or Google. Only Sonos speakers are affected - all other Google Assistant speakers continue to perform this action just fine. Fortunately there was a workaround in the case of routines that are only ever used on the Sonos speaker: modify the routine to always make the announcement specifically on the Sonos speaker rather than “on the initiating speaker”.Today things got worse. Google Assistant on Sonos has started responding “I didn’t understand” even when the announcement in the routine is specifically sent to the Sonos speaker.I guess this is the next step in Google trying to put the screws to Sonos and Sonos trying to abandon Google Assistant?

My Soundbar Beam Gen. 2 is registered with my account. I checked on the Sonos Website.Bug occurs in the Android 14 app (Google Pixel 8).See Screenshot:
