Have seen lots of comments on this. Purchase the Sonos Ace headphones for my wife last week at the airport, and when plugged in to watch a movie, the sound is barely heard. This is using the USB C to 3.5mm cable.  Good to know the issue isn’t isolated to me but not good to hear it might be a broader issue. Has a resolution been identified?  Thinking it will be easier just to get a refund and buy the Sony WX5’s as this is what I use and there has been no issues. Main reason I purchased the Sonos Ace was because the Sony WX5’s don’t bluetooth well to the Sonos Arc on my TV and Sonos advised there is a known issue with LG, so best to the buy the Sonos Ace headphones. Go figure...

Ciao a tutti, ho provato a collegare le mie 4 era 100 alla rete wifi in 3 stanze diverse. Una prima volta ci sono riuscito, ma non riuscivo a farle suonare tutte ma solo nelle singole stanze. Successivamente non sono più riuscito a collegarle non le trovava, nonostante le avessi resettate tutte. Cosa devo fare?

Info overload trying to find this answer….I am not smrt when it comes to this type of thing. We have a Sonos amp, which we have situated in the furnace room next to the smart wiring in our home. The kitchen ceiling speakers (not Sonos) are connected to the Sonos Amp in that furnace room as that is where the ceiling speaker connections are located. Now my question…..it is possible to connect the tv on another floor to the Sonos Amp via the smart wiring (somehow) in the furnace room without moving it from the furnace room? Like through the router? ethernet cable? or some other way…..I know it is likely easiest to connect the amp directly to the tv using the arc; however there would be no way to connect the ceiling speakers as there are no wires to connect them near main floor tv.I am hoping someone can make sense of my question……..

As the title suggests - I strongly suspect my 3 year old Playbase’s WiFi card has given up (I know how common this issue is/was). It has gone from the app and no amount of un-plugging from the wall, or re-booting the router helps. It is used in my bedroom as a standalone TV speaker and to be honest, that is all I use it for. It still works with the TV and luckily I had programmed the TV remote to control it and had the bass and treble levels all set up as I wanted it.From my understanding of searching the web, Sonos no longer replaces these like they once did and only offer a money off coupon upon the return of said Playbase.So my question is, I assume it will continue to work totally fine with the TV via the optical cable and therefore I should not worry about the lack of connection to the internet? If that is the case, it’s better for me to just keep it rather than spend money on another speaker that will only ever be used with the TV upstairs.Oh and to add - it does not show as conn

When I’m already playing music on a Sonos speaker and add another one or a whole group, there is no option to quickly adjust/sync the volume for all speakers to the same level. I always have to manually adjust the volume in order to have the same volume on all speakers. I know that there used to be a function in Sonos app to slide to the left to mute them all an slide back to the desired volume in order to sync them all, but this does not work with the new app. There are other apps available for Apple Watch and Mac which support this setting. How can I sync the volume with the new Sonos app? Or please bring back this feature.

My Sonos One won’t connect to my new router via wifi

Hi,I created a couple of zones using SONOS Era100 Pro speakers. It seems in this configuration, it does not allow a subwoofer to be added. Only when i change a Zone to a room, can I link the sub. Ie, a room with a singe speaker or speaker pair. Is this correct? Is this a limitation at the moment?

I had to update the app and now my Arc and TV won’t connect, they were working together just fine….how do I fix it? Why is it every time there is an update, it takes hours to fix my system…..what’s up with that Sono’s???

Hello! I just wanted to ask if others have experienced this potential bug; when running Era 300s as surrounds for an Arc Ultra in music mode, the Full/Ambient surround settings change the the sound of the Era 300s even when I’m playing Atmos music (this is through Apple Music on the Sonos app). The description of the setting, however, states that Full/Ambient shouldn’t apply to Atmos playback. I’m curious to know which setting, if either, is the intended EQ for the surrounds.

I could manage issues prior to the big beautiful app upgrade.I have had my One and One SL speakers for years. I have one plugged into ethernet. Two of my other speakers were struggling to stay stereo paired and I thought installing a mesh network to boost signal for Sonos would help. Not so much. I have to reboot my Iphone every time to get Sonos to “find my system”. In Network configuration Sonos shows two instances of my network. Those are the original network, and the mesh network I was encouraged to give the same name as the original. For example, my original network is named dummy123 and my mesh network install prompted me to name the mesh network dummy123. My Sonos system is on its own network on Channel 1

Play 1 light steady green. In Sonos app it shows with flickering I think indicating connected to wifi. But it is grey and I can move volume but it is grey and no sound

Until recently I regularly used my Amazon Echo Dot (Alexa device) to start playing music from Apple Music on my Sonos speakers using the Alexa Sonos skill. Recently it stopped working--either nothing plays or Alexa gives some “I can’t do that” error. If I have the Sonos app open on my phone while this failure is happening, I can tell my request to Alexa has succeeded in part because I see a stream of messages like this in the app:In the Sonos app I can search for something and pick a match from Apple Music and successfully play the matching track. All of this implies to me that there’s neither a networking problem nor a problem with my Sonos system’s connection to Apple Music. (I did the “reauthorize” operation just in case; it didn’t help.)Any ideas?

Hi! I have the Sonos One speaker, and the Sonos Ikea speaker, and it’s always had a big issue playing podcasts from Spotify.  Playing music from audio (via Airplay, or the other option where it’s not airplay but I just choose the speaker in Spotify) works perfectly.  With podcasts it will just randomly stop for 5 seconds and start again.  This happens whether I use the Airplay option in Spotify, or the option where I choose the speaker in Spotify. Any solution??s

Hello, I cannot use my Sonos Ace microphone on online calls (Google meets, Microsoft teams...) when I choose the stereo sound output (which is the sound quality I prefer because the Hand-Free AG audio is not good), only my laptops audio is possible to use. I could use both audio output and headsets microphone on my previous Airpods pro, so i don’t understand why i cannot use them on my Sonos Ace.

I’ve noticed a few times already when I pause a movie or TV show for a couple of minutes then resume playing, the Beam doesn’t output any audio even though it is on and I can control the volume up and down. The audio output is set to “ auto” default settings in my TCL Tv. It’s connected via HDMI arc the TV supports Dolby Atmos. My usual fix is to turn off the tv and turn it back on, a bit annoying

Hello! I have a question regarding the intended behavior of two Era 300s as surrounds in an Arc Ultra set up. It feels to me like the Era 300 side drivers are noticeably louder (maybe 6dB?) than the rear drivers. I’ve noticed that when turning down the surround volume slider you can make the sides match the rears, as that slider only changes the side volume and not the rears. With default settings after TruePlay, this imbalance doesn’t sound ‘bad’, but I am wondering if this is the intended behavior. I want to make sure that when every slider is set to ‘0’ (after TruePlay) I’m getting the closest experience to what Sonos/Giles Martin & co tested/approved. Thank you! Edit for clarification: this is when playing Atmos from Apple Music through the Sonos app. This behavior is consistent between quick and advanced TruePlay with multiple rounds of each performed.

I have a new Arc Ultra paired with an amp that has four in ceiling speakers and am also using a wired Polk Sub that I had.  Whenever I change the Arc to use “Surrounds” the sub woofer doesn’t work.  The only way I can get it all to work at the same time is to keep them separated and turn the volumes up for both.  That creates a bit of an odd echo though and isn’t really surround.  Any thoughts on what I’m doing wrong?

I have a three room set up , kitchen is an Arc, sonus amp and ceiling speakers for surrounds and gen 3 sub, Arcam Dac, iPad hard wired as controller. Small lounge Bose cinema 520 Arcam air Dac and Sonus port. My main lounge has a Denon 2200 AVR, Bowers and Wilkins in Wall front 3 speakers . Surrounds and height speakers in wall and ceiling . I am looking to make improvements to the main lounge as I am happy with the rest of the setup. I also have a single Sonus five and a move 1.I want to have the main lounge join the Sonus architecture and improve the sound quality too . Can a Sonus amp be used to power the front left and right speakers ?within the surround system ? Also could a Sonus subwoofer 4 then be connected to the main lounge ? Could I purchase another Sonus 5 and use a pair usefully within the main lounge too . If the amp option isn’t optimal , if a port is connected, could I then use a Sonus sub in the non sonus setup. 

In the lounge I have an Amazon Echo speaker and a Play One SL. For the last few years I have been able to ask Alexa to Play Apple Music and it would play over Sonus. Two days ago is started having trouble and displayed a message in the Sonos App “The connection to play.iTunes.apple.com was lost” I can use the Alexa voice command on the Echo speaker to play Apple Music on the Echo speaker so the Apple Music Skill is connected correctly. I can use the Sonos app on a mobile device to play Apple Music and I can then use Alexa commands on the Sonos speaker to skip tracks. I can use Alexa voice commands on Sonos to ask for time, weather, control lamps and TV. If I change to the Sonos voice assistant commands I CAN play Apple Music using voice commands. The only combination that does not work is using Alexa voice commands and asking to play Apple Music on Sonos. I CAN use Alexa voice commands to play streaming radio. To date I have:Followed the advice on the Sonos help pages by Disabling and
