How can I watch tv with sound muted and listen to Sonos radio at the same time?

Best answer by Airgetlam

Just start playing the TV, then go in to the controller and start playing music on your Sonos system. The ‘auto-play’ feature that is normally on on a soundbar will detect any starts by the stream, but you should be fine with playing the music, once you’ve started it.

While watching the TV, you can play a radio through the Sonos app. Then, you can watch the TV and listen the audio you want to play. At least, that’s what I do with my Sony and Arc. I don’t know if it’s something to change in the TV or sound bar settings.

Thanks Airgetlam and Triticale. I found the TV Autoplay setting and made the adjustment. Now it works fine.
