Google Assistant Alarm too Quiet on Sonos One

Separately from the overall speaker (e.g. Move) volume?

Edit: I see now that is the case. This is good.

Yes, but this only includes the Sonos app and not alarms set using Google Assistant, rendering alarms set using Google Assistant useless.

Again, there’s no point of having Google Assistant support if Sonos keep pointing us towards their app. They need to work on the Google Assistant integration instead as using the app is not a substitute for using voice commands. It defeats the entire purpose of having Google Assistant support onboard.

Hi @knutb10 and @JamesDan. Thank you for reaching out to the Sonos Community and I really appreciate your feedback. 

Google Assistant allows you to control Sonos with your voice to play music, adjust volume, skip tracks, and even get the weather, all through your Sonos speakers. 

In setting alarm, Google Assistant is a cloud-based/assistant alarms that are not visible to Sonos.

If the alarm sound set to a 25% volume limit and you command Google Assistant to set the alarm to a specific volume, it will still play the same volume set in the Sonos app. This means when you adjust the volume alarm with Google Assistant is not sync with Sonos. 

This is one of the limitations with Google Assistant and the feature is not available with Sonos yet. I'll be noting your concern as a feature request for Sonos' future updates. We don't have the timeline on this but you can check our announcements when this feature becomes available. 

If you need further assistance with this, I recommend contacting our Sonos Customer Care to provide the best option for you.

Google assistant seemed to get even quieter a couple of months ago. While you can’t adjust the alarm volume can you just add a feature to control the overall volume of google assistant? All the voice and alarms are way too quiet and it all just needs to be managed as a seperate “google assistant” volume option please.

Same problem here, bought 2 weeks ago the Sonos Beam and 3 Sonos ONE, 
One Sonos ONE is in the kitchen and the others in the living room as Surround set.

Google Assistent  is to quiet, the google timer in the kitchen is unusable because you can't hear the beep. You can't hardly understand the assistent in the living room, because the volume is to low.
Another problem Google Assistent can't find content on the Sonos Radio, only on TuneIn services.
A  seperate “google assistant” volume option is very much desired, and please fix the Sonos Radio problem.

This can't be this hard to implement, surely? If Google or whoever doesn't tell you what the volume should be for an alarm then it can't override a volume setting you set in advance either, can it?

Add an app setting under alarms for the expected volume level (you alrrady have an alarm volume setting anyway) but apply it for _all_ alarm volumes - and when google or whoever triggers an alarm just set the volume to that level temporarily?

literally catch the alarm trigger, set the volume, play the trigger, wait until timeout/ aknowledgement/ cancel state and apply the original volume. (And on boot of device set to original expected volume).

​​​​​​I dont see this ad a hard issue to solve and it makes your entire product suite functionally better.

Same issue on Arc

Same issue on my side.

It is very disappointing Sonos is selling us Google Voice Assistant feature, but they are not able to fix this grazy alarm volume issue.   I am sharing this bad experience with my friends, and some of them have decided to not buy Sonos because of this.

Same issue , and can’t change it to Alexa since my son’s name is Alex… two key voice command fail. I Love my Sonos Speakers/System but the smart voice enablement has been very frustrating since the beginning.

Been over two years since the original post and there still hasn't been an update to address this issue? I just bought a Sonos One with the intention of using it instead of my Google Nest Mini as the smart speaker in my room but if there still no update on this then I’m returning the Sonos One as there is no point in having it
