Home theater

I know this garbage app has ruined everyone’s system. Anyone know how to get a sub to reconnect to their system.  I’ve spent 3 ½ hours on it. This app needs to be in the trash and the old app put back on the App Store. Knowing Sonos it will be years till it’s fixed. 

So, at this point we're all more than aware of what an elementary update Sonos recently released, but one thing I haven't seen or heard mentioned is; are they going to bring back the TV function?!? I am having to go into my office and use the app on the Windows to switch from music to TV and beyond annoying at this point.... everything about this release was questionable and if they don't correct these issues, they're going to lose a lot of customers! Over it!

I’ve got an Arc connected to my Samsung TV via HDMI. It works when using Xfinity, and all the streaming services (via Xfinity box), Prime TV, AppleTV, etc all work fine. But if I open Peacock the audio never works.  I have to unplug the Arc to get the audio to work out of the TV

My Sonos isn’t working from the remote. The sound is coming from it and my phone . But, I can’t control the volume from the remote

After updating to new ap on ios I can’t control or play anything on my move alongside my beam etc

I have followed The instructions noted below. In the Sonos app when I ran TV set up, it would not run. The Sonos arc connected to the TV.  However, when the tv is shut off, it reverts to the internal speaker.here are the steps I followedDisconnect everything from the TV including the Arc and unplug the TV and Arc from power for a couple of minutes. Then plug everything back in but keep everything disconnected. Enable Simplink on your TV, then run TV Setup in the Sonos app under the Arc’s settings. When the app instructs you to, connect the Arc to the TV’s HDMI ARC port using the Sonos-supplied HDMI cable. When the Arc has been successfully connected, connect any other device to the TV.is there another more reliable way to connect the sinks arc to the tv? Bluetooth? Optical?

Just bought a new Hisense Roku tv and I have a Sonys soundbar gen 1 - cannot get them connected via the eARC connection.  Tried the optical adapter, tv still does not see the CEC device and does not connect.  any ideas? 

Hi,         I have had an Arc for a while. I recently purchased the LG Oled G3. I also have an AppleTv. When I connect the Apple TV to the TV and play a Dolby Vision & Atmos movie and check the Sonos app, look at the Arc all I see is HDMI.  I this correct? How can I see if the Arc is receiving an Atmos signal?  Thanks,John

Can I trueplay arc, sub and rear surrounds via Amp, if the rear speakers are not Sonos?

I have a Toshiba CT-8555 TV, Sonos Playbar 1, Apple TV 4K. Playbar connected via optical cable. Apple TV connected to TV via HDMI. I cannot set up my TV remote with the sonos app, it does not recognise it. I have reset the playbar, i have followed the steps suggested - change batteries in remote, turn off the tv etc etc. I can only control the volume of the sonos through the sonos app, not through my apple tv remote, which is the goal. I have the same set up in a different room but with a Sony TV and it all works fine. I am fed up! Please help. I want to control the sound through the playbar with my apple remote!!!  

Is there any way I can connect my Playbar to Era 100?

Amazing that Sonos tech support has no clue how to tune the system since the new app was released with a bug that causes it to freeze when you hit Continue to start the tones. Here’s what works until they get around to fixing it which should have been found BEFORE releasing the “upgrade”. Change the source to a music app from your TV. I used Spotify. While a song is playing go to the Tuning and launch it to retune. When you rotate the phone (using latest iOS here) this time when you hit Continue it should work. Rebooting phone as Sonos is telling everyone is a waste of time. Hope this helps!

My Sonos beam has been working for years and suddenly quit.I have checked all the cables, unplugged and rebooted my router and the beam.Sometimes I can get it working for a few minutes but then it drops out again.It still shows up in my app and says it has a strong wifi connection. But it won’t connect to the TV or music. I get “can’t connect now, try again later” message when trying to group the speaker with my others.I’m not sure what to do at this point, any suggestions? 

wtaf sonos!  youre starting to remind me of apple, that whole ‘holier than thou” crap… that’s why i quit them and their ‘you can only charge with approved cables” attitude.  so i have the beam , 2x sl ones, the sub gen3 , and recently spent too much on the port.  it receives my mixer and two technics sl1200 mk2’s.  your think that they could just incorpoarate BT connection but..no! and the new app as just ruined my sat night gathering- how the f...k do i now find my port-line in- turntable on my sources?   and morgan freemans voice is soooo annoying.  wtaf sonos!  the new app is worse than the last which was pretty crap anyhow.   the sound keeps dropping out as well.  the tv line in is all i need as well as my turntables and my mixer/preamp through the port.. and “YES” i want to hear the TV and am SURE  ya bloody muppets.  FIX THIS OR I WILL RUBBISH the brand. 

Have rebooted, unplugged and still can’t figure out how to get the Beam working predictably since new app was rolled out. I don’t even see the TV (line in) icon - it comes and goes.Diagnostic sent in. at least 20 min on hold to talk to someone and had to hang up to take another call.I have Connect, Plays, Arc - and haven’t even touched those issues yet. Beam is where I watch tv the most.

I have a beam gen 2 and I tried to use true play but it’s not tuning on my iphone15 pro.  Any idea if it’s a phone issue or a software issue? 

A quick question,I have a Sonos arc, sub gen 3, and also x2 era speakers used as a cinema surround system.iv noticed when watching the Gladiator film on a 4k Blu-ray Disc the sound format says DCM 5.1. But Iv noticed and compared that the surround sound doesn’t come through the era 300. but when I played the same film  on Netflix on the same player the sound format comes through as Dolby digital plus 5.1. And the surround sound works great. iv tested a few blurays and the surround sound works fine, but I wondered why does the 4k blue ray disc have a different sound format and doesn’t work as good as a bluray or through Netflix???  can anybody help. 

What is SPDIF setting for tv and how do I change it?

Dear Sonos users.i have a new arc and sub plus 2 era 300 speakers and have set as a surround sound system. It sounds great andhave tested a few blu rays and works great.

Buenas tardes, tengo un Sonos Arc y no puedo realizar el ajuste True Play con mi iPad 6a generación. Moderator Edit: Google Translate-Good afternoon, I have a Sonos Arc and I cannot perform the True Play setting with my iPad 6th generation.

speakers, hardwired sound bar and bluetooth speakers, cuts out for a few seconds randoms when watching cable and streaming tv. 

Afternoon all,Over the course of many years we have developed a very nice wall to wall Sonos house. But one room I could never justify (or afford) to kit out was the kids gaming room. Sounds upscale, it was of course a spare room. :-) …. but it kept them (and their friends) out of trouble and managed.Now however, kids have left home (and took S1 Sonos gear to set up home), we are just shutting down the old room and adding the gaming thing to my home office for Grand kids!!!! Feel old.Anyway I get the excuse to complete the Sonos install and could use your advice for the best Sonos setup to build in that will work nice with PS5 and Xbox or indeed I guess PC gaming etc.We are at that install point (after projector screen, consoles, network etc) that needs sound adding. Holes in plaster and floors up time.I’d be very grateful to get practical advice what to do and indeed what to avoid. I’m thinking about a large sound bar I can fit at lower lev

I’m unable to complete retuning on arc. The app is giving error message after calibration phase is over. Also I’m unable to use Alexa though the speakers are registered on Alexa app

I just bought a Sonos Beam 2 and the sounds is great but whenever my Samsung TV goes off for a few hours the TV reverts to TV sound and only reconnects if I unplug the TV or the Sonos.  This is overly burdensome and I am thinking I am going to return the Beam sadly.   Does anybody have any other things i can try.  My TV does not have any new software updates. Also does anybody know if this is a unique Sonos issue or do other soundbars solve this issue with EARC dropout.
