I’m making the rounds to the threads, but if you’re having this issue and you’re using an Android phone, there’s a new Spotify app for Android available today, version 8.5.32.889, which should resolve the volume ramping up when using Spotify direct control. If you’ve been having this issue, please make sure to update your Spotify app and test it out.

If it’s still giving you trouble, let us know!

There have been a few reports of similar issues. It would be helpful if you submit a Diagnostic immediately after one of these events, then post the confirmation number here.

Same issue here on my sonos one. Did it three times two to three mins apart. Went to phone to find that Spotify was open, so closed it and so far mo more episodes. Next time it does a random increase I'll post a diagnostic as suggested.

Try removing the Spotify app from your controller device, and see if you can reproduce the issue.

Fascinating. Thanks for testing that. Hopefully, the work that Sonos is doing with the Spotify engineers will be able to identify where the issue is, given the data provided with various community members, and come up with a fix.

Same with me, starting yesterday. Was playing Spotify. Closed the spotify app and streamed directly to Sonos, but a few songs later the volume jumped. Have had Sonos speakers for 2 years; this is a new problem.

Followup: I was using Spotify on my PC (Windows 10), not my phone app. Closed the app but Sonos volume jumped again.

Reports are more valuable if a diagnostic is included.
