It’s all there in the title. Did 13.2 do anything for this issue? We just got the “bug fixes and improvements” rhetoric and because it was a big number update (.x) instead of a .x.x update maybe their would be something substantial. 

I currently have an Arc with gen 3 sub and two one SL surrounds. The only way I can setup the  room is with the couch against the wall. I have the surrounds mounted and turned inward, but I don’t get the true surround feeling. I’ve seen that you can’t add more surrounds, but is there a work around with another speaker or two to put behind the couch to get the surround feeling? Ideally the speaker would be running the surround audio and not main audio. 

I guys,I like to know if it possible to connect my Sonos Play 1 to my Smart TV and listen the sound of TV in Sonos Play 1? José Batista 

Hi. I’m having issues with Beam’s IR sensor where it will stop responding to Sky remote via IR. This issue was only fixed with a power cycle. It followed the same pattern. Would work perfectly and then just stop responding after a week or so. I’ve tried all usual fixes and just gave up. Today I’ve updated the firmware to 13.2 and it’s working again. Anyone know of this issue is included in the update? TIA

HiI just bought a beam soundbar and to ear correctly TV sound I need to raise volume to 60+ and the sound not very good. Then when I ear from an other source (DVD player, google assistant, …, this setting is much too highIs there a problem of configuration ?Note : the connection between Beam and TV is HDMI Arc. TV provider is OrangeThank you for help

I bought the playbar,2 play 1 speakers and the sub almost 2 years ago,I noticed a few weeks ago that the sub is no longer connected to the rest of the speakers,it was blinking red and white,I went to all the troubleshooting recommended and nothing,I called sonos support twice and they were not able to fix anything,they offered to replace the sub since I'm out of warranty but they want 425$...plus my cost of shipping...and a new gen 3 sub is 700$...any other way to fix or any advice is more than welcome 

I used true play to set up my surround system. Now, if I go to the Sonos app>System>TV Speakers (+Sub+LS=RS)>Sound>Surround Sound> I see TV Level for each surround speaker which you can adjust the level of each from -0 to +15. If I change the sound level of the right speaker nothing changes. However; if I move the Left control it changes both speakers not only the left one. Do I have something out of wack? 

I have the Sonos Arc, with two rear “one” speakers and a sub. Everything plays well and I get adobe atmos through my Apple TV. My PS5 however has a audio delay (sound behind). The only way to fix it is to switch it from “dolby” to “PCM” which then takes the sound away from the rear speakers. I’ve scoured the internet with no luck. I have a LG tv with ARC not eARC. LG TV: OLED65C8PUASome say to change the option in the tv to say, “passthrough”, but mine only has “auto” or “linear pcm”Some day to buy this: https://hdfury.com/product/4k-arcana-18gbps/ But I don’t feel I need to purchase a $200 product to fix the lip sync. All the audio sync adjustments make the sound worse. Any thoughts would be helpful. 😃

New to Sonos and just want to confirm if I can use 1 amp or need 2?  Looking to setup a 5.1 with soundbar/amp and 2 ceiling speakers in living room. Then in kitchen/dining room use 4 ceiling speakers.  From what I read you can connect up to 6 ceiling speakers to 1 amp. Not looking to use both systems at same time, but can I utilize the 5.1 and then the 4 other speakers separately with 1 amp? Hope this makes sense. thank you, David

Have an LG CX, an Apple TV 4k and Full Sonos Arc 5.1 setup with all the latest software. Keep getting that for virtually everything that’s supposed to be Dolby 5.1 and cannot figure out why I am not. Viewed multiple forums and still can’t figure it out. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. 

I’d like to get a sound bar, but I have a “dumb“ TV with no ARC input. Is there a workaround?

Hello!  I  recently purchase a Samsung smart TV. Can I    pair my S2 speakers to the TV via bluetooth? I  tried doing it through the TV but nothing was showing up.

Hi,I’m not sure this is possible but are there any plans to introduce the ability to add more surround speakers to cinema set up?  Currently running with an Arc, 2x Subs (gen 3 & gen 2) and 2 x Ones. Really like the looks of the new Ikea\Sonos frame speaker and would love to put a pair behind us.  Thanks in advance,Paul.

Hey everyone.I have a lg oled55c6v TV, and just Got and PS5. Is it possible in someway to get atmos Sound through to my sonos setup?  It’s impossible with only the TV Since it does not support it, therefore i only get 5.1.  But is there a workaround for the ps5?

I have a Sonos Arc connected to an ordinary ARC HDMI output on my TCL android TV. I recently downloaded the Apple TV app onto the TV and at first it had a terrible lip-sync problem. My TV has PCM, pass-through, and auto options. Pass-through gave no Audio at all, the auto mode gave terrible lip-sync, but the Sonos app was reporting it was receiving a Dolby DD+ Signal. PCM mode still had lip-sync issues, with the app reporting it was receiving a stereo PCM signal.  I turned it off and left it a few days, and then tried it again, and it worked perfectly on auto mode - perfect lip-sync, and the sonos app reporting a Dolby DD+ signal.  now it has gone back to the original problem again, and I cannot figure out what has changed. Amazon prime has also stopped working on auto mode, and now has bad lip-sync unless set to pass-through, which now sends out a stereo PCM signal for all movies, instead of the Dolby 5.1 that it was giving.  I’ve tried switching on and off the tv and the Sonos, and c

I’ve recently been turning my living room into a home cinema piece by piece, currently have the arc, 2 of the Sub gen 3  and 2 ones for my surround setup, also have 2 moves which I absolutely love.  going to upgrade to 2 fives for my surrounds, and putting the 2 Sonos 1 in my hallway and basement :) the sound quality is insane, the newly introduced Apple spatial audio works great with the Apple TV 4K  really impressed 

Some question about my Sonos Arc  and Netflix.I am writing fron Spain.When in a movie appears the DolbyAtmos symbol, doesnt means that I can hear the movie in DA?I would have to choose in the different languages, the one in “dolbyatmos”? In my case, in Spanish DolbyAtmos? If not is available in my language, then the sound will be in Dolby Digital even the logo is in the movie presentation? 

I have a Sonos Arc paired with 2 Play 5s … I also have a Gamut Dana subwoofer lying with me which I want to add to the setup … can I use the optical out of the Tv to connect the Gamut by using a 5.1 audio sound decoder converter to 5.1 ch analog audio ?

My Sonos Ark arrived today. I had some reservations but, it’s 2020 and I can’t believe how irritating this is.    2019 Vizio M Series Quantum (M658-G1) Apple TV 4K XBox One S    ATV - Supports Atmos  XBox - Supports Atmos  Vizio TV - Supports Atmos (with certain apps)    I’ve adjusted all the settings, tried different settings, and no matter what I do the Arc won’t do Atmos. The best I get is DD+ 5.1.   Apparently with Vudu I could Atmos strait from the TV app … but this is Canada. No Vudu.    So I have three atmos capable players. A new Atmos sound bar. My TV and Apple 4K are current models.    And yet… no Atmos. It’s ridiculous. Not sure to blame Vizio. Sonos. Apple…. between them they just don’t talk. 

bonjour Je dispose d’une sonos beam connecté à mon TV (par les connecteurs fibre) Je souhaite positionner à l’arrière 2 ONE SL Cela pour une solution home cinéma. Est ce possible avec la solution WIFI afin de ne pas avoir à tirer des câbles. Quels sont vos conseils Merci

Another device interfering with HDMI connection. I just bought the Sonos Arc, connecting to my Samsung TV QN65Q70TAGCZB via HDMI ARC/CEC. When my cable box and sonos are connected via HDMI, no sound through Sonos ARC. I can only get sound when I disconnect everything else, to include cable. Everything hooked correctly, tv setup correct.  This happens every time the TV is turned off.Please help!

I am continually trying to improve my setup output and wondering if anything has changed as far as settings etc. Anyone have any ideas on what Else I can do, I would appreciate it. Biggest issue is that I am still getting Multichannel LPCM 7.1 and Stereo PCM through ATV 4k on what should be DD for streaming. At least I do get some Atmos on Netflix, Apple TV and HBO Max  Also volume is really soft at like 70% it’s like about the same as 30% on my Beam. Note all hardware are latest updates.LG is set with hdmi for atv as bitstream, hdmi 2 for arc as pcm (default and can’t change), earc on, dolby atmos on, digital sound out pass through. 3.23.06 ATV 4k is set format 4k dolby vision, match content off, audio output tv speakers, audio format auto atmos available, audio mode auto.  14.6Arc is set as standard with no adjustments but with loudness and voice on. 13.1.4

So my LG LED uses a Beam with Arc and a gen 3 Apple TV and with 2 Play 1s it shows Dolby Digital 5.1 as it should. When I watch the exact same content on my LG OLED with eArc surround and an Apple TV 4k (old version) I get the MC LPCM 7.1. Why the difference? I haven’t made any major setting changes on the led setup and it’s fine. 

Hey,  I may gave completely missed all info on this but hey! I have just received my PS5 and am pumped to use it with my Sonos Surround Sound Set Up. Arc, 2 x Play 1 & Sub.. My question is how I connect all of this with my TV, while still enabling 120Hz Refresh and Dolby? My TV only has one EARC HDMI which is the only one I assume I can use with the PS5 to allow 120HZ refresh rate? Sine the ARC only has 1 HDMI slot I will then miss out on EARC on the Sonos? What am I missing? I have read about pass through also but am completely baffled!  Cheers, Sean
