Sonos couldn't complete swap Ace/Arc

Has anyone successfully switched the sound from the Arc to Sonos Ace?

I get the following error message when trying to Swap

 

“Sonos couldn't complete swap”

 

Thanks

Ross

Guys i found the solution.
 

1.) Unplug the Arc from power

2.) Turn off Ace

3.) Turn off bluetooth

4.) Close Sonos App

5.) Plug in the power to Arc, wait until it boots

6.) Open Sonos App

7.) Turn on bluetooth

8.) Turn on Ace

 

The swap should work now. It seems the issue comes from Arc screwing it somehow.

Yesterday, is not today.

I’ve got the solution. I assume you are using the arc with ethernet cable like me and the Wifi is disabled. So you just have to enable the wifi on arc in the Settings in the app, and it will work.

Noticing occasional odd behavior in sonos app after adding Ace yesterday. The Ace software updated twice since but sonos app stayed up to date.

Example - Go back and check arc-based home theater settings and Trueplay had reset to factory.
