help needed - Sonos One won't stay connected as a surround to the Beam

I have ran a diagnostics test - 2021248624.

 

I have a Sonos Beam and 2 Sonos One that I have used as surround speakers for a long time.  A few weeks ago my surrounds lost their connection as a surround to the beam and I can’t get it back.  Currently my system is showing Living Room (+?+?) and the Ones aren’t listed.  I remove the surrounds and the speakers don’t show back up right away.  If I unplug the Ones and then plug them back up they will show up.

 

Then I attempt to connect them as a surround, the system sees both Ones, it pings a speaker to ask is that left or right side, it starts pairing and then after about 1-2 minutes it just gives up and says it was unsuccessful.  I’ve done this over and over for too long…. I need help.

Go to Settings/System/About My System. 

The Beam should say WM:1.

The surrounds should say WM:2.
