Headphones

Hey - used Sonos Ace with my Arc Ultra 1st Gen to watch movies a lot and to date it’s been pretty good. Just done the firmware upgrade, switched on True Cinema and dialogue in action scenes in particular are really muffled. Even switching true cinema off doesn’t get me back to where I’ve been in the past. Anyone else finding the same?

TrueCinema is missing in the app. I've succesfully updated the Beam(gen2) and the Ace but I still missing the TrueCinema  item on TV Swap menu.

Hi, I just got a brand new pair of Sonos Ace headphones. Connected them via Bluetooth to my OnePlus 10 Pro, running OxygenOS 15. Then downloaded the Sonos app and tried adding the headphones to it. The app finds the headphones, tries to set them up, then when the screen displays "preparing the Sonos Ace" it interrupts and says it couldn't add the ace and to check the Bluetooth connection. I've tried resetting the app, resetting the Bluetooth connection. Nothing is helping. 

Where are the Sonos Ace release notes? I keep getting firmware updates but no release notes in the app or the website from what I can tell. 

Hi.2024:Coming later this year, Sonos’ all-new TrueCinema technology precisely maps your space then renders a complete surround sound system for a listening experience so realistic you’ll forget you’re wearing headphones.2025 April:Will it be released this year. Regards. M

When will I be able to connect two Sonos Ace to one Sonos Arc Ultra?!?

Hi, Has anyone noticed there appears to be a bug with the Sonos app / Sonos Ace Noise Control functionality?  Selecting the noise control options with the Sonos app on Android does not change the mode on my Sonos Ace headphones.  The function can be changed directly on the headphones and reflects in the app when it changes, but it cannot be changed from within the app itself.

Hi, I just got my ace and I like it. But it has a small problem: it cannot remember the volume setting. Each time I turn on it and connect to my iPhone it will go back to 50% volume, not matter the level in the last use. My comfortable volume is 30% so I need to adjust it each time I use it.Do anyone know how to fix it? Thx.

Hi everyone, I just got sonos ace. I wanted to listen to quiet music in bed and realised they are too loud in the minimum volume setting.I have an IPhone and use Spotify for streaming, and couldn’t find any solution in my phone’s software. As I just bought them I updated them already, and it didn’t help. 

Have seen lots of comments on this. Purchase the Sonos Ace headphones for my wife last week at the airport, and when plugged in to watch a movie, the sound is barely heard. This is using the USB C to 3.5mm cable.  Good to know the issue isn’t isolated to me but not good to hear it might be a broader issue. Has a resolution been identified?  Thinking it will be easier just to get a refund and buy the Sony WX5’s as this is what I use and there has been no issues. Main reason I purchased the Sonos Ace was because the Sony WX5’s don’t bluetooth well to the Sonos Arc on my TV and Sonos advised there is a known issue with LG, so best to the buy the Sonos Ace headphones. Go figure...

Hello, I cannot use my Sonos Ace microphone on online calls (Google meets, Microsoft teams...) when I choose the stereo sound output (which is the sound quality I prefer because the Hand-Free AG audio is not good), only my laptops audio is possible to use. I could use both audio output and headsets microphone on my previous Airpods pro, so i don’t understand why i cannot use them on my Sonos Ace.

Gemini AI says this is how to connect two Ace's to a TV audio output:If your TV has RCA outputs, connect them directly to the Sonos Port's line-in. Add the Port to your Sonos system and create a group including the two Sonos Ace devices.Will this work?

I have an issue with my Sonos Ace update.The Sonos app shows "Update Available," but when I tap "Update," it says, "Your Sonos Ace is up to date." This notification loop won't go away.I have already tried extensive troubleshooting, including: * Rebooting all devices (router, phone, Ace). * Reinstalling the Sonos app. * Performing a factory reset on the Sonos Ace.None of these steps have fixed the problem.Is this a known issue, and is there a solution?

I am going to put in a call to Sonos next week when I can. Just received my Sonos ace and when connecting to Sonos Arc volume is still very low even at 100%. Have seen all the discussions on how to may fix but still no resolution even after 8 months+ from release. This is shocking.. think I will be returning mine if this cannot be resolved quickly. Took advantage of the 30% off offer but now think this was too good to be true. Surely the tv swap should be flawless being the Sonos ace main USP!  am I missing anything to resolve this issue? thanks 

Sonos ace says there is an update in app, however the update splashscreen continuously polls and doesn't reach a conclusion. This is after an app reinstall, a headphone reset and on multiple WiFi and also 5g. Any users had similar issues.Android 14 Samsung s2280.20.33

Hi, Can i buy a new case?? I’ve left mine on plane when travelling. Ant

Hola, me acaban de llegar unos sonos ace que pedí hace poco. Lo he estado utilizando para reproducir música, ver videos e incluso jugar. El problema, cuando uso los audífonos para escuchar música en la app de YouTube music, la nitidez del sonido cambia drásticamente, pasando de un sonido muy limpio a uno que parece ser de unos audífonos súper baratos. No entiendo si es el Dolby Almost. Alguien me podría explicar cuál es el motivo del repentino cambio en la calidad del sonido?  

When connecting headphones via usb-c to my iPhone with usb-c I notice that the volume is a little lower than usual, even at the same levels as I usually use via bluetooth. When I open the Sonos app, and see the status of the headphones, I notice that the volume level of the headphones in the Sonos app is 2, and when I even try to raise it by sliding manually, the volume goes up to too high levels just by going up only one or two volume levels. The volume control of the device, ie with the iPhone buttons I understand that it is an independent control and therefore does not affect the volume displayed in the Sonos app. How would I go about listening through the usb-c cable to enjoy lossless audio without dying in the attempt or going deaf. It is super dangerous that the sound volume makes such drastic jumps and that the control is not consistent between the app and the volume of the device.

Hello,I just received my Sonos ace, I seen when i push or i adjust the left pod, like a « cut sound » or something like that.Is it normal or not ?Thank you

Just received my Sonos ace headphones, they are completely flat with no charge, and none of the USBC chargers I've tried will charge them. The orange ligh comes on, then goes off. I've even tried charging them from my laptop and my mobile phone, and get the same. If I hold the button in, the start up sound begins and then cuts off. I wish I'd researched these more, they're going straight back to Sonos, I can't even register them on the app to reset them, very disappointed 😞..

  I was eating when I decided to turn off my sonos ace and when I turned them back on you would only hear on the right side however the noise cancellation and the left side buttons work perfectly as I try to restart and reset them but nothing works. 

The Ace have a markedly better sound profile that my AirPods Max (AM); however the precision of the AM’s volume control, especially at the lowest volumes, is peerless. It is quite granular and decreases to the point of barely hearing sound. This allows me to read, write, reflect, or sleep without intrusion.The lowest volume level on the Ace headphones is far too intrusive for the quiet enjoyment of one's music during said activities, which is a real shame (and perhaps not a priority for Sonos given the recent app debacle). I wear ANC monitors to shut out not create distractions, so it pains me to say that I may end up returning these despite my deep appreciation of their sound profile.I would note that other OEMs (eg, Bose QC Ultra earphones and earbuds) have the same issue, but I expect better from a more expensive product. This feedback relates specifically to my use of the Ace headphones with my iPhone and iPad. I received and updated my Ace headphones today, which means that for me

Ace is grayed out in app. Any suggestions?

Hi there anyone have issues with the wear detection of Sonos Ace? was working great but starting a few day ago stop working even after resetting or turn off the device.doesn’t matter what I am using as an interface, audiobook, Spotify, YouTube music or Sonos radio.

Hi! Recently picked up the sonos ace and I’ve noticed some flaws….A really cool feature of the sonos ace ANC is how it turns off in low noise environments to reduce white noise. This is a great feature I think because I hate the white noise. However when the ANC kicks in, it sometimes makes a “pop” sound that can get a bit annoying. Is this normal for the headset? I notice it the most when I’m on my PC clicking the mouse, Also I’ve noticed a fair amount of clicking/poping sounds when moving around, the noises come from the hinge system as when I press on the headband the noises disappear. Very noticeable when running on a thread mil. Is this normal too?Both these issues are identical on both ears, which makes me think that it’s normal, just want to check if others have experienced the same :)Thanks for reading.
