I’m using the line-in entrance to drive a stereo paired Sonos Five speakers, joined by a Sonos Move 2 speaker.


All components have the latest software updates, including the Sonos app.

Any pause in the audio source longer than a few seconds, causes the Mone 2 to disconnect from the currently playing set of speakers - namely the line-in driven pair of Sonos Five which do resume playing correctly.

The only way to restore playing from the Move 2 as well is through the app, re-joining it to the paired Five speakers (that are connected via the line-in). In other words, if there is no constantly playing sound/signal - the Move 2 will disconnect and require re-joining every time playing resumes.

I’ve tried:
 

  1. Turning off and back on the Move 2 speaker.
  2. Updating all system components (app itself and the latest Sonos system updates).
  3. Changing Sonos network channel.
  4. Killing the Sonos app once the Move 2 is correctly connected/joined and is playing.

But nothing helped so far. 

 

Additional step

  1. Re-configured my router to give fixed IPs to all system components.

Look at the Line-in settings for the Fives.

You should be able to adjust the Autoplay settings so any grouped room remains in the group.

I just found this myself; thanks !!

Had to enable auto-play (upon a line-in signal) to include grouped rooms.
