The same here. I have an Samsung TV, TV Box from my TV vendor with Logitech Harmony remote and sonos soundbar, SUB and two Sonos:1. Sounds comming from the TV BOX to Sonos over SPDIF. Everything worked fine untill sonos last software update that came 2 weeks ago.
Same issue here. Harmony ultimate with hub, Samsung tv. Hopefully the firmware fix comes soon. Harmony website acknowledges the issue and states its been since April 10 although this thread seems it happened much sooner. Do harmony firmware updates push and self install or do we need to watchfor the next release?
If I recall correctly, and I've not paid particular attention to it, you have to update the harmony specifically. Usually, it happens when you do a "sync" between the remote and puck. I believe at that point it checks the firmware version, and downloads and installs a new one. That being said, I've seen it require a connection to my PC via USB at times, too. So I'm really unclear as to how Harmony handles it....but I'm pretty sure that you have to initiate it, it doesn't normally happen in the background (like Amazon's Alexa devices do).
Same problem. Just bought my playbar and thought this was how Sonos was, but glad to see that I’m not alone. Wife is not going to be happy with my new $700 purchase. Please fix soon!
Me too...dug out the old xfinity remote to control $4k in brand new equip. Wife is less than impressed...and I’m just plain disappointed. Please fix Sonos & Logitech!
I agree with the comments that state they don't think this is exclusively a Harmony problem. I use both a Harmony remote and my Cox Contour remote and both encounter a lag between the time I turn on my TV with my Sonos Playbar and the volume controls on both remotes, including the mute control. It takes maybe 30 seconds for the volume controls to work, but after that time, they seem to work just fine.
I am having the same issue. I previously had a setup that included a 2014 60" LG plasma TV (because I wanted to own one of the last plasmas ever made), Logitech Harmony remote, and Sonos Playbase. I was having quite a few problems with that setup for other reasons. So, I just upgraded my TV to a 77" LG OLED C8. I've taken the Logitech Harmony remote out of the equation entirely (at least for now), so I'm only using the LG Magic Remote to control the Sonos Playbase volume. I did the setup per the Sonos forum, selecting Philips as the manufacturer. The volume change with each button press is way too small. You have to press + or - 25 times just to get the volume to change by 25%, so the volume only adjusts 1% with each press.
