Can Beam reconnect to group after it's used with TV?

Hi.

 

I have a system with multiple Era 100s, and a new Beam (gen2). I have the Beam in a group with the other speakers for music, and when I watch TV it disconnects from the group to work standalone as a soundbar.

Is there a way for the Beam to automatically reconnect to the group so I don't have to manually re-add it every time I've watched TV?

 

Thanks!

 You can create a Group then access it from the grouping screen or if you want music playing on all speakers just use the default Everywhere group that Sonos provides.

My issue is that although I have grouped the Beam with the rest, every time I use the TV the Beam drops from the group (or rather becomes unselected). I have to head back to the Sonos app to manually reselect the Beam into the group (or tap the "everywhere" button). I was wondering if any options would allow me to not have to do that, in the way that the system would automatically re-select the Beam into the group when not used with the TV.
