Why while watching a video on google on my iPhone only would two of my Sonos speakers start playing the audio for no reason. ? They were the two speakers i use for my tv earlier in the evening 

Best answer by jgatie

Two speakers my playbar and two one sls just came on in the middle of the night and played the audio of a video i was watching on google. No Bluetooth they were linked for earlier tv viewing. I don’t think i could be clearer than that

 

Since the Playbar does not have Bluetooth/Airplay capability, the source of the audio had to be your TV.  Somehow your phone cast its video to the TV and the TV played it to the Playbar and surrounds.

You’ve not given us many clues here. Were they still linked by Bluetooth? Part of a group? 
What’s your setup and speaker configuration? Is the incident replicable?

That makes sense
