I have a sonos system in which there is a duplicate room (living room). The pair of sonos 1's appear in one room while the sonos arc and sub appear the other.
Answered
why does the same room appear twice, one without pair of sonos 1's?

It’s possible you’ve set up two rooms with the same name, instead of adding the PLAY:1s as surrounds, using the controller. When speakers are added as surrounds, they show up in the same room. Sonos doesn’t, unfortunately, block you from having many rooms use the same name. It tracks the ‘room’ differently, but the UI displays whatever you have defined as the name.
I’d go into the controller, select the Arc’s room, and use the ‘set up surrounds’ feature, as discussed in the FAQ.

As I add speakers to a system I make sure that each speaker name is unique. For example, speakers that will ultimately be use as a surrounds, I’ll name “Livingroom-LS” and Livingroom-RS”. After these speakers are bonded to the soundbar as surrounds, they will be merged into the ‘Livingroom” surround Room. as far as a general user is concerned, but if I need to access any setup details it’s easy to identify each speaker.
