Turn down Assistant volume on Sonos One?

For what it’s worth, Google and Sonos are in the midst of a legal dispute so this situation is not likely to improve. Sonos may have gotten screwed over if you take their argument at face value, but Google has more money and experience on their side. Sonos needs Google, not the other way around. The longer this is drawn out, the less likely we hear of an amicable resolution.

Actually, I remember reading some where that even though there is a lawsuit the two companies have still been able to work together.  Even after they started their legal battle, Voice Match was finally launched on Sonos products plus the wake word sensitivity also added.

But this is purely a Google issue.  It's just something Google hasn't addressed. All Home speakers behave in the same fashion. Word is they are working on it but nothing has come of it.

Google Assistant is much too loud. I can’t imagine anyone likes it yelling. This is something that needs to be fixed.

Any progress on this, or a workaround? The volume is jarringly high and makes it really dumb to use the assistant in some situations.

Just got two Sonos ones and this is definitely a big annoyance, makes me avoid using Alexa. Please fix!

You need to fix this Sonos, this makes me wanna sell all my Sonos ones

Hi folks, thanks for reaching out with the Sonos Community! We greatly appreciate you being a part of the Sonos family. It is our pleasure.

With the Google Assistant, you can play music, find answers courtesy of Google Search, plan your day, set timers, and easily control smart devices around your home. And, with a Chromecast device, access TV and movies by using a simple voice command. 

The integration also supports features specific to Google Assistant, like continued conversation, meaning you can ask the Google Assistant a series of questions without having to say “Hey Google” every time. For more information on using Google Assistant to control Sonos, please see this link.​

We’ll continue to bring more actions and functionality to the experience over time through software. 

Please let us know if there’s anything else we can help you with. We and the community are always here.

I fixed mine !  If you recall, you can change the voice volume of your Google Hub speaker by telling it “ SET DISPLAY VOLUME 10% and it adjusts the hub voice volume accordingly.  Now I found I can do the same with my MOVE (with the Move Microphone on).  My Move speaker is named “Move” in Google Home, so I said “Hey Google, set MOVE volume 10%” and it works.  Give it a try.

See my new post on it.

For some glimpse of control I made an IFTTT applet that sets the volume of my Sonos devices every night at 03:00 AM. This way my morning talk with Google won’t be of a suprising volume.
