Hey everyone 
I recently upgraded my mini to Gemini and Sonos has been playing completely different song when I play it through google mini
My set up is Sonos 1 + google mini + Gemini.
I will ask mini " Hey google play A song" and Google mini will respond with " Playing A song on this sonos" but what is playing on sonos is completely different song that i asked. 
I have tried rebooting mini and sonos . I have removed and readdded YT music and nothing works . It happens  on ALL my sonos controlled by google mini. This ONLY happens after i upgraded to Gemini

is anyone having the same issue or find any solution ?

Thanks

Hello ​@hanwin, welcome back!

I am sorry to hear you are experiencing issues controlling your Sonos with your Google Mini after switching from Google Assistant to Google Gemini.

Is Google Assistant added to your Sonos One, and if so, what happens if you issue the command “Play A song” directly to the Sonos speaker instead of the Google Mini?

You can also Submit Diagnostics within 10 minutes of reproducing this issue and contact our Support Team for live troubleshooting

They have tools at their disposal to provide you with information and advice specific to your Sonos and what it reports.

I’m also sharing below a very informative Community thread in regard to the transition from Google Assistant to Google Gemini and how it affected Sonos:

I hope this helps.

thank you for the reply . sorry for the confusion . I have the old Sonos Play 1 without mic. that's why I was controlling it through google.mini.
