Hi

I have an Amp connected via optical adapter that I use for HT purposes with a pair of Ones as surrounds and a pair of passive speakers. Content comes from an Apple TV 4K.

The problem is that frequently (several times per evening) the remote (I use the Apple TV remote) stops being able to change volume. The only way I could come up with to restore this function, is to repeat the TV setup in the Sonos app. This quite time consuming of course and not a good user experience.

Is this a common issue, does anyone know how to avoid this, maybe an easier way to fix or to reestablish the remote functionality?

Hi

RTFM helps of course. It seems it’s recommended to connect the TV remote rather than the AppleTV one.

After fixing this issues the problems stoped, also the AppleTV remote works anyway.
