 I have Sonos Arc, the mini sub, and 2 Era 300s in a surround system. They are connected, sound great, however Trueplay no longer seems accessible. Do I have to disconnect and start over? Thanks

I am told that Sonos have outdoor Google Assistant wall mounted speakers. I have power and even Cat6 data cables installed.  Speakers are to be mounted on verandah under cover with some weather exposureCan smart speakers be operated in a stereo configuration? What can anyone recommend ?

Looking to add ERA 300 speakers to my surround sound, would like to install them on the shelf in the picture where the red circles are.  The speakers would be 10’ high, 10’ from the back of the sofa and 25’ from the TV (if that matters).  As you can see its an open floor plan with no good place to put them on the wall or on floor stands.  Would they be effective on that top shelf or am I wasting my money?    

We updated our router a few weeks ago. Our Sonos Systems (Play 3are having difficulty connecting to the Wi-Fi. We’ve tried rebooting, and it will, and Sonos One) l works for a nanosecond and then stops working again.  We are constantly rebooting the system or trying to hook to the router, but all have been unsuccessful. I tried calling Sonos customer service but was on the phone for an hour waiting for someone to answer.  I’m looking for suggestions for other things I could try. If it matters, we have Verizon. 

Hi - Long time owner of Sonos systems (I have two houses) but so frustrated with neither system working any longer I’m looking for any alternatives that work.  Any suggestions / recommendations?  Cost isn’t much of an issue as long as it’s similar or less to Sonos.  I don’t like just taking all this equipment to the dump but that’s what I’ll do (versus trying to sell bad systems to others or even giving them away) once I source and install new systems.  Thanks for the help!

I have a Music folder on my desktop that I am trying to add. This is on MAC OS.When I try to do this it says Sonos was unable to add the folder and access is denied?

Seems my ARC soundbar volume is dropping momentarily at random when playing audio via HDMI (Roku Ultra).Curious if anyone else is experiencing similar behavior or has a fix / solution available?Symptoms:White status light on front of ARC soundbar shows  for ~1 to 2 secs before disappearing Volume is only reduced to low and is not disabled entirely Once white status light disappears, the volume returns back to normalMy first thought was the Sonos voice assistant was inadvertently enabled; however, I’ve noticed when enacting the voice assistant, there is usually verbal feedback plus the entire transaction usually takes at least ~5 seconds.Troubleshooting Attempted:Disabling Touch Controls via Sonos App to rule out phantom button presses (NO EFFECT)Setup:Roku Ultra connected via HDMI 1 to Sony TV Sonos ARC connected via HDMI 2 (ARC) to Sony TV ARC Sonos Voice Assistant Enabled Connected via Wi-Fi Microphone Enabled Thanks in advance!

I set up my era 100 at home with WiFi and ran trueplay as well as adjust the eq. I have since moved my era 100 to my office where I can only stream to it over Bluetooth. Am I correct in understanding that the trueplay and eq settings carry over from the last tuning? Since I’m streaming over Bluetooth and can’t connect to WiFi I have no way of adjusting the trueplay and eq settings at my office.  

Seems the TV Autoplay function on my ARC soundbar is not working consistently as I would expect.  When this feature is enabled, my assumption is any audio signal provided via HDMI to the Sonos ARC should take priority over streaming audio via the Sonos App (i.e., Spotify, etc.). This should in turn automatically switch the audio signal from streaming audio to HDMI when present.Curious if I have the correct understanding of how this functionality is suppose to work in practice? Anyone else experiencing similar behavior?Below are 2 examples of how the function is working for me today:Example #1Streaming music via Sonos App → Turn on TV to view any Roku Ultra video streaming app (i.e. Netflix, Hulu, etc.) Outcome (AS EXPECTED) - Audio signal auto switches from streaming music to streaming app audioExample #2View any Roku Ultra video streaming app (i.e. Netflix, Hulu, etc.) → Switch to streaming music via Sonos App → Switch back to viewing any Roku Ultra video streaming app (i.e. Netflix,

Hello,When I ask Alexa for the current weather via my Sonos speaker, I always get the message that she is not aware of where I live, but I can save it as an address.A unique address is stored in the Amazon account that I use for the smart speaker. Do I need the Alexa app here or is the error somewhere else?

Why can’t you control Sonos from more than control?

Our entire home is filled with Gen 1 speakers that we run on the Sonos 1 app on our phones, as well as on my laptop.  My husband bought a Roam, not realizing it’s not compatible with the rest of our system. What’s the easiest way to initialize the Roam and use it simply as a bluetooth speaker that we can pair with other audio from our phones, independently of requiring the Sonos 2 app?  Hoping I make sense and thanks in advance!

 “Hi, I’ve just set up my latest Sonos purchase. I’ve connected a Sonos Ray and two Era 100s. Additionally, I’ve connected a Move 2. When playing them all together, there’s an echo in the voices. Could the Move 2 be adjusted as a sub, or perhaps a different setting for the Move 2? The Ray and the two Era 100s are well aligned in terms of sound.

I have multiple alarms set to play music on my Sonos Move. All function as programmed but one. When the time for the alarm happens, the chimes play instead of the music. I have tried different music, changing the time by a minute, deleting the alarm and re entering an alarm; but it always plays the chimes instead of the music. Only for the 9:00 am alarm! I have the latest App upgrade. Any ideas?

I have 10 pairs of Polk Audio RC80i in my home, powered by 2 Sonos Amps and connected to a Sonos Port. When I stream music via Android’s YT Music directly to a Chromecast Audio that has as 3.5mm adapter to the Sonos Port’s Line-In, there are 2 major issues. (I don’t use YT Music integrated into the Sonos App because of latency and difficulty in navigating music)(1) I seem to get ads on my YT Premium stream (have a ticket with Google about this(2) Rather commonly, my music will cut out for what can be 10-30+ seconds at a time.This has mostly happened when playing my Zen playlist at very low volumes, but I’m not sure if this issue is part of the whole S2 debacle. I run a lot of Ubiquiti gear for my home network, but there’s no device/traffic-specific settings I’ve applied there in.Ideas?

Is there a way to speed up playback speed of Audible through my Sonos system? I have tried if both from the Sonos App and the Audible app casting via AirPlay 2 - neither works.  When I do it in the Audible app, it shows higher speeds, but is just playing at 1x.  This makes it UNUSABLE for me on any of my 20+ Sonos devices - high multiple thousands of dollars of equipment just useless.  please let me know how to solve, or if not this should be a high priority feature - it’s just shocking to me that I can’t do it, the first true disappointment I’ve had from Sonos.

My Arc (hw version 1.27.1.13-1.2) has been miserable with my LG C2 losing HDMI ARC and switching to TV Speaker, only to get back to HDMI ARC again in a bit. But I don’t think this is an ARC or CEC issue, as lately I realize that with the TV turned off, listening to music with the Sonos App or listening to my turntable via a Sonos Amp has a similar problem! The must stops and there’s no audio.Watching carefully, I can now see in both cases the Sonos app does not connect with the Arc, and the white light on the front of the Arc is blinking white. Is it rebooting? What could be causing it to reboot?
