Have music library on Windows 11 transferred from IPod Classic. Is it possible to listen to the music on my ACE headphone? I can play music through Android phone, but unable to listen to music with ACE headphone. Apologize for not further clarifying; not certain how to provide further detail. I want to listen to MY music on MY pc via MY ACE.  Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Make sense, not really.

The Ace in your usage are simple Bluetooth headphones. Connect them to your phone and select the as the output device. Then use any music playing app to play the music.

The phone will send it out over Bluetooth and the Ace will play it. This works for any audio source, like Amazon Music or YouTube that plays audio.

You’d need to connect your Ace to a Bluetooth signal (or USB C via the cable) to your PC, and use a player on the PC to play the content. The Ace doesn’t act like a Sonos ‘room’, so you can’t use that part of the Sonos system to play content, you must go ‘external’.

My Ace is connected to Bluetooth to my PC and Android phone.  I have desktop, laptop, Android phone and all devices are connected via Bluetooth.  I can listen and control my music via Android BUT cannot listen to music and I want to listen (via ACE) control my Music Folder on Android phone. I can play my music and listen to my music folder via (SONOS speakers)  but I cannot listen to Music Folder with ACE. ACE does not recognize my music folder, thus I am left to listen via speakers and not ACE.

 

Does this make sense to you? Thanks.

No, sorry. 

Essentially, the Ace is just a Bluetooth device, another connection. It isn’t part of the Sonos ‘rooms’ paradigm, it doesn’t connect to your regular Sonos speakers. What may be happening is that it is locking on to the Bluetooth signal from your Android device, and ‘blocking’ the connection to your PC. Try turning off the Bluetooth signal on your Android, then connect your PC’s Bluetooth to the Ace, and use your chosen player on the PC to play the music. You do have to make sure your PC’s Bluetooth is connected to the Ace, and not your other Sonos speakers.
