Hi everyone,I recently moved and I'm trying to set up my Play:5 (Gen 1) on my new Wifi network using the S1 app. It was working perfectly fine a few weeks ago at my old place, but I'm currently stuck in a setup loop.When I start the wireless setup process, the S1 app correctly identifies the Play:5 and proceeds to create the temporary "SONOS" network. I go into my iPhone settings, connect to the "SONOS" network, and confirm I'm connected (the Wi-Fi icon is showing in the top right of my screen).However, when I return to the S1 app, it throws an error telling me I am not connected to the "SONOS" network.Here is what I have already tried to fix it: Factory reset the speaker Deleted, reinstalled, and updated the S1 app to the latest version Tried using a different iPhone Ignored my regular home Wi-Fi network on my phone so it wouldn't auto-reconnect Turned off the "Private Wi-Fi Address" setting in my iPhone's Wi-Fi network settings Verified that "Local Network" access is toggle

For some reason my play bar began emoting a repeating tone. The play bar wasn’t being used at the time. None of the Sonos devices were in use.

Hello,I own a Sonos Beam. Over the past few days I’ve noticed that Google Assistant responds to “Hey Google”, but it ignores voice commands and nothing happens. I’ve tried several commands, for example:“Hey Google… lower the volume”,“… turn off the TV”,“… play song X”. None of the commands are executed. I therefore tried removing Google Assistant and adding it again. Everything works fine until I’m redirected to login.ws.sonos.com. When I click “OK”, I’m sent to a page that doesn’t exist (404). Since I can’t proceed in the process, I’m currently unable to add Google Assistant back to my Sonos device. How should I proceed? Could you please fix the link so I can complete the connection? I’ve attached screenshots showing what I see step by step before I’m redirected to the non-existent page 

Hello,I cannot find a way to set shuffle for Alarms for youtube music playlist. please help. 

 Hello, A very important feature is currently missing, and I'm surprised it hasn't been implemented yet. The ability to edit and manage radio favorites would be a huge plus for me. With the MyTuner Pro app, you can manage and, more importantly, move your favorites. Audials Play goes even further, allowing you to create multiple favorite lists. How can I suggest Sonos add this feature? Is it easy to contact them? Do they even check this forum?

I purchased speakers and amp through Best Buy which is being fulfilled by Ultra Discounts Corp.  Will they be covered under warranty?

My inline service isn't coming over the Sonos speakers, even though it shows the sound is playing in the app

I recently bought a new Nighthawk router.  I have an Arc on one tv and a Beam on another.Both speakers are still working great.When I open the Sonos App, neither shows up.From what I can tell, I need to change the WIFI info stored on the Arc & Beam to the new Nighthawk.I can’t seem to make that happen using the app itself, but have read that if I plug the Arc into the Nighthawk with an ethernet cable, it will transfer the new Wifi info to the Arc, which in turn will update the Beam.I will then be able to see them in the app.Sound right?I don’t want cause problems since they’re working fine at the moment.Thanks in advance for your help.Steve

I am new to Sonos and want to adjust the sound characteristics of my Roam 2. I can’t seem to find it. - Paul

Is the new Era 100 SL compatible for stereo pairing with any older speaker?

This app should be offered by Sonos; it's terrible. 

Hi In the last week or so, Plex has stopped working in Sonos. You can see all the library items but the songs won’t play. I have done everything, including overhauling my network and doing a clean install of Plex on my QNAP NAS. I have spent days trying to troubleshoot this issue but so far, nothing. So I am wondering if anyone else might be having this issue, and has it been caused by a firmware update either on Plex side or Sonos? I have reached the point where I'm going to either have to ditch Plex or Sonos so that i can enjoy listening to my music without the hassle. I would really appreciate any advice that someone here might have. Thanks Jay

I’ve been facing issues contacting my Sonos devices and getting them stay on my Wi-Fi network, tried factory reset, app refresh , changing ownership too ( to a separate account) . The app connects and drops as it pleases. The issue may be with my router config. I travel frequently and carry my speakers , so the networks change . Presently in Japan, using a tp link 841 router , all my other devices work just fine it’s just Sonos that’s such a pain🤬

Questions from a white-haired old granny who’s not great on technical jargon.I’ve had a Sonos system in my house for some years: S1 controller, 2 Play3 speakers and a sound bar, plus a Connect box linked to a Denon CD player and speakers. Accessed via a Mac mini (running Tahoe 26.3.1) and the Sonos app on an iPad and iPhone.For some months I have not been able to access my music library either on Mac mini or portable devices. I gather this problem has been raised before but I haven’t seen an answer.Questions:I gather I can upgrade to Sonos S2 – but will the Denon no longer fit?Do I have to replace the speakers? If this is the case I think it’s a very poor do.I have a Synology NAS drive – I’ve seen comments about using this but don’t understand where it fits in.

Can we please get the balance option on the settings back.

I’ve been using Sonos amp with 2 speakers on my deck for several years and now it’s no longer working.  Flashing white light.  I unplugged amp, plugged it back in and pressed button on back until it turned green.  I then entered the serial number from amp to the Sonos app and it said it was now connected again.  When I tried playing music with deck speakers the white light started flashing again on the amp.  HELP 😞

I gave up on my Sonos speaker years ago because of poor compatibility with many of my audio apps. I connected to my old speaker again to see if the UI had improved at all, and in many ways it was a lot better! However, there's no skip ahead function in Pocket Casts. This is a real deal breaker because I hate ads and always fast forward through them. Are there any good free Android podcast apps that have this functionality in Sonos?

I’m using the Sonos S1 with 2 x Play:5 in a stereo pair for the last 6-7 years or more.  I usually play the Radio Paradise stream direct from the RP service and NOT through TuneIn.  Right now, I’m only able to get 10 songs with no way to increase this limit.   Has anyone else noticed a limit on the queue size that will play from such a service? 

Hi there, first post for me…I have a Sonos system (several ones, arc, sub, move, roam, connect) all playing in harmony!  The connect is connected to a CXN100 via coax digital out/in and I had some audio lag issues which I sorted by changing a setting (I can’t remember which one but it fixed the lag issue).I’ve now added a DAC Magic external DAC between by CXN100 and my amp.  I now have a horrible lag again and I cannot find a setting to fix it.just to be clear - I’ve got Connect > Streamer > DAC > Amp all connected by coax.  Before I introduced the DAC I had no problem but now I do!  There are no delay settings on the streamer or the DAC but I know I can do something with the connect to fix it but I can’t figure it out!please help!  Thanks

Hello everyone,I'm having trouble setting up my remote control with my new Sonos Ray.My TV model is TCL NXTFrame 55A300W- I disabled Bluetooth on the remote control, so it now only works in IR mode.- I connected the Sonos Ray to the TV using an optical cable.- I configured the sound output to optical only.- The remote control learning function does not work on the Sonos app.- I tried hiding the receiver on the TV, but that didn't help.- I tried moving the remote closer or further away.- I tried quickly pressing the + button, but that didn't change anything.Has anyone else had success with this type of TV/remote?Thank you in advance for your help. 

Hoping I’m not the only one. Out of the blue a few days ago, when asking our Sonos 1 to play a song via Google assistant/youtube music, it now says “sorry I can’t do that on this device”. I’ve deleted,readded,reauthorized, rebooted, reinstalled (I’ve re-everythinged). No luck. Works fine on my iPhone via Siri.  Why don’t Sonos and Google play nice?

Our old zoneplayer s5 speaker was working great until I stupidly updated to S2 without realizing it is not compatible. I have tried many fixes: deleted S2 app and reinstalled S1, reset speaker to factory settings but nothing allows the app to find the speaker anymore-any help. It was working yesterday until I did the app upgrade :-(

I would like to share some tips on some hardware issues I have faced, and seek clarification for some instructions posted by Sonos.  But every single discussion thread seems to be closed… what’s with that???

Album Artwork is in a folder on desktop marked Album Artwork.jpg. Somehow, I have to include this folder in the pathway! Oh, the PATHWAY!! When I do create a pathway it says access to the shared folder is denied check username and password. when I updated my music library one piece of artwork transferred. I can't figure out why that worked and none of the rest worked… Help

Suddenly my Sonos speakers are no longer found on the local WiFi network when I want to stream music (via Airplay or otherwise). The app still works and through the app I can play music on my speakers. However, on my IPhone (and my girlfriends IPhone), we cannot use Spotify or other audio apps that previously worked. On Spotify it said: ‘no devices found on this network’. we have ‘klik en klaar’ internet from Odido. any idea how to fix this?
