My gen1 Roam has become unresponsive. None of the buttons on top respond and the on/off button is also unresponsive and no lights come on. It is kept on the Sonos base charger when not in use (the charger plug supplies 5v, but I can’t tell if the base pad is working). If I plug a charging cable in the rear socket I get a red light at the bottom but none of the buttons respond. If it wasn’t nailed to the perch would it have fallen off?
Question
Gen 1 Roam unresponsive
If you search “Sonos Roam died” or failure or similar you will find a lot of owners have had Roams stop working.
I would contact Sonos support as they have been replacing them out of warranty (not guaranteed but you should ask), almost like they know there’s a defect or something.
