Sonos ACE Issues with ARC and Interfering Noise

Hello,

i have issues using my Sonos ACE with the ARC.

Before the newest ACE Update, i saw the TV Swap feature in the Configuration Menu. Since the Update, this feature is gone and i cannot use it anymore even if i long press the Button. Nothing happends.

 

I already tried to factory reset my ARC and the ACE, restartet both and tried to use different inputs, but nothing helps. I use the Latest App Update and firmware updates.

 

Also i have intefering noise on the right earbud when i pause the music playback. 

Is anyone dealing with same problems?

Hello jjboyce,

 

I saw a few folks manages to contact Sonos and they'll get their headphones replaced, so I assume that's not something that can be fixed with software update.

 

I've decided to return my headphones.

Hey @pawelwa 

 

apparently you’ll be able to exchange them if you call Support. Haven’t done yet as I know there’s a long wait. I’m currently working but will do later today and write a follow up here. 
 

althought it seems like they know about it and will exchange for us.

Same here regarding the right ear buzz. 

I’ve also replied to these threads about it:

 

 

Managed to get through to a real person on the Chat: replacement has been authorised, but I have to return the original ones first.

I had same issue - Sonos Ace would not perform the swap. What worked for me was enabling WiFi on the Arc - it was disabled as I’m using Ethernet to connect to network, which automatically disables WiFI. Hope that helps

Same issues as everyone else. Was really excited about having the swap capabilities with my Arc. I’ll contact support but if these features don't get fixed quickly, I’ll be returning.

How is your arc connected? WiFi or Ethernet, check if your arc has WiFi on if its connected with ethernet

Same issue as others. My I-phone 15 will not swap with arc and ace. Spent 2 hrs plus with tech support . No resolution with issue. Said i’d get an e-mail with explanation.Ill have to try disconnecting ethernet cable to arc, see if that works. Will let you know the outcome.
