How do I get my sonos one gen 2 to play the tv sound without being grouped with my Playbar and sub. My 2 ones are a stereo pair. I did add a different one because Best Buy had them on sale. Now when I added new speaker to existing sonos one, speakers will play in a group Playbar + sub and 2 ones 2nd gen. Now when I ungroup and play the 2 ones by themselves for tv sound there’s nothing. Then in order for sound to come through again I have to go to browse and tap the tv button. I don’t know what to do cause it worked fine before I added new speaker

There are only two ways of playing TV sound through a play of Sonos Ones:

1/ Add the two speakers as Surround players to the Playbar + Sub
2/ Leave the Stereo Pair as a separate room and then group them in the Sonos App. Note: If you want these two Sonos Rooms to be grouped together all of the time, then please open the Sonos App>Setting>Room Settings and select your Playbar + Sub. Then select TV and ensure that 'Ungroup on Autoplay' is not selected. This will stop the group breaking apart when the TV signal is detected.

If you add them as Surrounds you can then set them for Full rather than Ambient sound for music playback.
