Hi all,

Thanks for sharing your feedback. Apple Music is not currently available via the Google Assistant. We're always looking for ways to add new services and experiences - we'll post again as and when we have more to share.

All the best, and happy holidays,

Ditte

Sometimes Sonos don't get new Google Assistant and Alexa features straight away. 

I'm having the same problem where i have set Apple Music up in Home app, but Sonos will not play Apple Music.

It’s just a appeared for me, in the UK. Apple Music is set as default player for Google Home app and assistant and it plays on my when you talk to the assistants on both apps but only plays back on my phone. I ask SONOS, ok Google or hey Google etc. Just says ok, playing on Apple Music and then says, sorry Apple Music is not supported on living room speaker… definitely a smart speaker

I’ve tried to take Apple Music off and sign back in the SONOS controller app

Sonos had an update out about a day or two a go and wondered if that could be it but looks like it isn’t. 
 

Hopefully a fix soon

Same for me, “Apple Music is not supported on xxx”, playing from Nest Hub and Nest Mini, all set to use Sonos speakers as their default speaker.

Same issue here. 
I’ve been able to link Apple Music to Google Assistant, but it refuses to play on any of the Sonos Speakers. 
i did try to unlink Sonos from Google Assistant and add it back in and I got the following error message 

I guess there still some work to be done on Sonos site

Looks like most of us are trying to get a Google Home device (Nest Hub, etc.) to direct a Sonos speaker to play Apple Music. Has anyone had success getting a Sonos voice-enabled device (One, Beam, Arc) with Google Assistant enabled on that device to play Apple Music on that device itself?

good question, I only tried a Home mini and a home hub that I use as glorified doorbell chimes with nest hello then set Sonos as default speaker.

just tried it directly on a Beam after swapping the built in assistant from Alexa to Google

 

still the same “Sorry, Apple Music is not Supported”

 

So Sonos will need to enable something their end

I have Sonos One's and Beam. 

I don't think the feature is available on Sonos at the moment. 

Would guess exclusive to Nest Speakers for a while.

I think your right.

I had to unlink Apple Music from Google Assistant in order to be able to add back again google assistant to my Sonos One

On the Sonos page about this its says: 

 

Apple Music is not currently supported for use with the Google Assistant on Sonos.

 

So until Sonos builds an update or a workaround the only to make this work is with all the other music services, except Apple. ARGHH! going to have to get a Spotify subscription.
