I have an open concept house. I use a home theatre system with the arc under the TV and two rear speakers (both era 100) and I have the sub to go with it in the front. My wife complains when she is cooking in the kitchen she likes to watch the news but all of the speakers are located in front of that area. I wanted to add one more speaker that will play all of the sound in the kitchen (not just back ground noises like my eras do) what do you all recommend?

I actually did not know you could do that with the button/voice.

I plugged in the TV Room ( exact name of Sonos Room ). Unfortunately SVC returned “Can’t find that room. Check the name of the room in the Sonos app”. Very disappointing. The hold Play/Pause button does work.

Is there something wrong with naming a Room TV Room?

No, I wouldn’t see why not.

I’d rename it, but that would require some editing in my IOS Shortcuts. Guess I’ll stick with the button or create a shortcut to Group the kitchen with the TV Room. “Hey Siri. News”.
