Google assistant problems with Sonos Move

I am not sure if anyone has the same problem. 

 

I purchased my Move in the UK while i was living there and recently moved to New York. I am reading lots of post of the Move being incompatible with 5gHz routers from verizon. Interestingly though, I was able to set it up. Worked just fine, playing music and everything. My issue is with the google assistant. I’ve tried resetting the Move and adding the google assistant again, however, when I give commands, it’s saying that the speaker is not available. I can control the Move just fine with the app either from my ipad or my phone but would love to have that flexibility again of having to speak to it via google assistant.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks!

Hi @xiejianbei, welcome to the Sonos Community!

You’ve already performed one of the steps I would recommend, which is to remove and re-add Google Assistant. I would also suggest you remove the Sonos Move from the Google Assistant / Google Home app, as it may still be trying to link to the previous assistant connection rather than the new one after you had reset the Move.

You can unlink your Sonos Move by opening the Google Assistant app → Tapping the user icon → Devices → Sonos Move → Unlink. 

It’s also worth checking your profile on Sonos.com to see if your address is set correctly, as this can effect music services and voice assistants. If you change your address, reboot your Sonos system or leave it for around an hour or two to fully change over then try Google Assistant again.

If you’ve followed these steps and you’re still getting the same message from Google Assistant when you give a voice command, I would recommend you reach out to our support team for further troubleshooting assistance.

I hope this helps!

That will be the next step, havent had the time to reach out to them today. Strange thing is, is that it sometimes is working.
