Sonos, switch off Beam for music

Wouldn’t it be good if.. you could switch the soundbar (beam in this case) off when playing music?

Ive a couple of one rears and a beam up front. For home theater it’s fine, but for music playback it puts too much through the soundbar. The ones sound far better as a stereo pair I think, even if you have the soundbar set on low.

 

the app should have a preference setting, ie you can toggle what speakers are active for music and TV,, bit o’ refinement I think

Would you not also need another Trueplay setting?
