Sonos not playing broadcasts
I've tried on my Beam, a Sonos One Gen 2 in my kitchen and my Sonos One Gen 2's as surrounds in my living room. None of them will play a broadcast message no matter where it originates from. I've checked for updates, everything is up to date. All of them will send a message but non of them will play any.

Just figured it out.... In the Sonos app
Settings>Room Settings>(Select Room)>Voice Services GA>Google Assistant Settings>Default Media Output ---- Select the appropriate Sonos speaker.
For some reason this was not selected by default. Once I selected the proper Media Output devices they all worked.

How are you sending the Broadcast? Are you sure all the Broadcasting device and the speakers are on the same account?
I can broadcast FROM any of my Sonos speakers (Beam, One Gen2, etc) and it will be played through my other Google home devices but, NONE of my Sonos speakers. If I initiate the broadcast from my phone, a Google Home device or Sonos speaker they only play through the Google devices. The Sonos speakers will SEND a broadcast but, just won't play any of them. I only have one Google account and one Sonos account so I'm not sure how I could be using a wrong or different account. It's very strange as every other command works. Even CEC on my TV through my Beam in my bedroom. TV on/off, volume etc. all works.
Works for me. If I Broadcast from the Sonos One, it says Ok and the broadcast message comes out of my other Google Home speakers. If I Broadcast from one of the Google Home speakers, the broadcast message comes out of my Sonos One (delayed a few seconds from the Google Home speakers, like almost everything with Sonos). Same if I Broadcast a text message from my phone.
