Google Assistant and Sonos groups are not supported.

Why can't I play music on Sonos groups with my voice with the Google Assistant?

It is ridiculous to pay so much money on Sonos devices, if I can't even play music on a music group with the Google assistant!

Sonos is a multi room system, but one of the key features ist not Support by the Google assistant.

And don't blame Google on this, you could easily sync the groups as separate devices into the Google home app.

I am not talking about the Sonos application, I am talking about Google Home, in which the Sonos Move appears and you can edit the room and the name, but you cannot add it to any group in the house along with the rest of home speakers, Bose does. And that isn’t because it can’t be done, or incompatibilities, it is because Sonos, for whatever reason, they aren’t interested in doing it

But that is not what this thread is about, so I don’t regard your comments as relevant. You are just confusing the matter. I was commenting on the question posed in the original post, not your off-topic contribution.

@Mariogd - Quote from Google website:

You can create groups of speakers, Smart Displays, and Smart Clocks so all of your devices play the same audio throughout your house.

This feature doesn't work on Bose or Sonos speakers that have the Google Assistant..
