HiUnfortunately I have a TV with no digital optical audio outlet, are there any adapters on the market or any other ways to connect the Ray to a TV with no digital optical audio outlet? 

Thanks Sonos! I just did the update today and now my IPHONe app no longer works.  My music library is now inoperable again.  This is absolutely not acceptable.  When is this crap going to be fixed? Sonos OS: S2Version: 16.3.3 (build 80156190)Hardware Version: 1.12.1.2-1.1

I’m trying to set up some outdoor speakers for a new patio that we are building. Thinking about putting 4 Klipsch speakers AW- 650 ( which would go under patio ceiling ( size of patio is 40 X25  )  and another 2 outdoor speakers on the ground ( the rock looking ones AWR-650-SM) ) for the other part of the backyard. Can all this be connected to 1 sonos amp or I need 2 separate ones? also how many speakers can each amp support? I already have sonos for inside of the house and have been using the for years. We love it! Thanks. 

I love my Sonos when it works, but it’s been a constant headache… The latest is that after listening at home, all of the content on the app is grayed out - playlists, artists, recently played. I can see it all, but can not select anything. Services do not show at all. I tried to add Apple Music back, but just get an error “something went wrong. Please try again.” I’ve reloaded the app, reset the app, logged out an in… Nothing. The only thing I can do is start or stop the music already played or last played.  I will add that I use the app for two systems, one at home (i am owner) and one at work, which I am not the owner. When I switch between the two I find the system on the current network and join it - this seems to be when this issue crops up. 

Why ‘Deutschlandfunk’ does NOT work anymore?Hi Sonos team. Hi Sonos community - I try to stream the radio channel ‘ Deutschlandfunk’. It was always available through the Sonos radio service. But lately I only can connect to Deutschlandfunk Nova or Deutschlandfunk Kultur (Green annd orange label) unfortunately not Deutschlandfunk (the blue label) anymore. Can you/ anybody help me please on this topic? Can you fix it, Sonos? 

HiRecently picked up a Ray and whilst it works on Spotify etc via the app, the sonos app says there is not connection between tv and speakers. Tried the light down wire and it works. Removed plastic caps etc. Only thing I can think of is if the port on the sonos is broken? Pic attached. Any help would be great! Thanks in advance 

Hi all, since the app update I can’t login. App continually says login to update system. Nothing has changed apart from the app. Constantly says something went wrong. Emailed the ceo and support on numerous occasions with no reply. I’ve rolled all the recommendations and it still doesn’t work. Anyone got any other ideas apart from selling ang buying Bose,

Today I have encountered yet another issue with the new Sonos App. Choosing a Spotify playlist, album or song from within the Sonos app no longer creates a queue.  It simply displays the relevant artwork and only plays the first track, regardless of which track in a playlist or album is selected.  The queue incorrectly indicates that the session was started from Spotify.  I have never encountered this problem before.   I have a very solid WiFi network and have been using SONOS extensively for many years.  Has anyone else had this problem and managed to rectify things?

My Sonos app is not loading today, crashing instantly, any ideas?

Mh sonos beam gen2 won’t stop blinking orange and white when i tried to factory reset it . what do i do?

I have just returned to our home in UK where we have Play5. Have other Sonos products in our main house in Australia. Cannot get Play5 to work, cannot even get “Accept”  button to work, it is “greyed out”. 

My Beam 2 That’s running my living room audio is blinking a white light today.  I see other topics posted but since I’ve been on hold with Customer Support for over an hour I figured I’d post a topic while I wait. Things I’ve tried:Unplugging and re-plugging Factory Reset Plugging in an ethernet cable Plugging in a different ethernet cable to a different network Un-plugging and replugging all of the above for different durations  Update:  Talked to support and it was labeled a “boot failure”.  I’ll have to return it and receive a new one.  Luckily it was still under warranty.

I am struggling to play vinyl from my turntable to my Arc. The current setup that I have is I connect my turntable to the RCA IN on the Connect, then I set the Arc input to be the Line-In that shows up in the app. For some reason no sound comes out of the Arc. Here are a few things I’ve tried:- I tried playing music from apple music in the app to the Arc, this worked- I tried connecting the LINE OUT of the Connect to speakers and play from the Line-In, this worked I’m not sure what is going wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’m trying to connect a Sonos One back to my system, but no luck. The speaker was connected fine in one room, but when I moved it to another room, the system didn't recognize it. I’ve tried a system reset (holding the infinity button while plugging in the speaker) numerous times, but when I get to the stage where it’s connecting to my network, I get a message that says, “Your Sonos has been added, but may not appear in your System. If so, unplug the power cord and plug it back in to finish setup from system settings.” That doesn’t work. I’ve tried this about 5 times. I’ve moved the speaker to a third room and no luck. I’ve reset my router without luck. I’m stumped.  Note that all my other Sonos speakers (3 Sonos Ones, 1 Play:5, and 1 Beam) are connected without issue.

Seeking any suggestions as spent an hour with customer support trying to connect a pair of Play:1 speakers to Bridge. The issue was that the Play:1 speakers have S2 software and Bridge is S1. We tried unsuccessfully to downgrade the Play:1 speaker software to S1. I wondering if someone has another idea. Is it possible to eliminate the Bridge (which was being used to drive external speakers that we no longer use) and use the two speakers individually? Or must I purchase another device that uses S2 software to drive the two Play:1 speakers?

I’m trying to play podcasts from spotify in the Sonos app and all I get is access denied, I can play music without issues but when I try to play podcasts I get the error “Unable to play <podcast episode name> - access is denied.” and if I create a playlist in Spotify with podcasts and view it in the Sonos app all of the podcasts are greyed out  and I can’t play any of them.I tried to remove the spotify connection in the app and then add it again after a while without luck.Music and everything else works great and have no issues, this problems only exists with podcasts and Spotify, I’ve tried with the Sonos app on Android and iOS and the problem exists on both platforms.I’ve sent diagnostics to you: 684919168

Speaker works with Bluetooth fine. Set up process works and connect to network. Then app cannot locate device. Try again, same thing. It can detect device to set up initially but after that never can connect. Frustrating. Ready to return. So disappointed.

I go to the app and cannot get the first page to accept 

I set up a playbar, 2x One speakers and a Sub back in 2016, but since then have changed ISP and router so a new wifi network. I can get my playbar to connect, but everything else I can`t seem to even find. I tried to factory reset so I could do a full new setup, but still can`t seem to find anything except the playbar.

My Sonos Roam was unplugged from power source for 3 weeks while away. Now it won't turn on even though it's plugged in and orange charging  light is on. Will not connect at all. Is the battery permanently dead

One of all my disappointments from Sonos of late, the lack a care for the Sonos amp is one of the biggest “F U”s from the Sonos team. Since the new software out Amp only runs default settings, no eq, no sub control, no surround control, no night mode. When we change the setting the just reset instantly. I just can’t believe how little this company cares about their customers now. An absolute insulting and disgusting example greed and profits over care and quality. Why are we caring about night mode toggles in the settings menu when we have a long list of serious issues you seem to be avoiding. I’m trying to be patient but this is seriously so unacceptable. I’d post a video I’d the issue i can’t in the forum. 

On my two five gen 2 (plus sub, it sometimes work and sometimes not. Same goes for loudness, when change, there i no change in sound. The only part working in EQ are balance.thanks

Today I successfully updated to the latest 16.3 Firmware and Windows Desktop Controller.I subsequently performed an “Update Music Library Now” from the 16.3 Windows Desktop Controller.Now when I select “Imported Playlists” using any Sonos Controller (including SonoPhone, SonoPad) the app either displays “Something went wrong. Try again” or if it does display the playlists then it displays “Something went wrong. Try again” when I select a playlist. Trying again doesn’t resolve the issue.Anyone else having this issue?Ross.

Hi everybody,I’d like to have my Beam (Gen 2) connected simultaneously to a TV set as well as to a PC. Is that possible? And if yes, how?Thank youMarkus
