Sonos Arc soundbar connected to LG HDTV, in use for over two years.  Within the past two months, when I play Spotify via iPhone to the soundbar, TV comes on with still pictures portraying the music (artists, album covers), or some unrelated screen saver pictures.  Prior to ths, TV did not energize, music simply played through the sound bar using Spotify.  I am unaware of any change that I may have made.  Would someone please coach me through What to check?  TIA

Exact opposite of everything I’ve Googled.I deleted an album from my NAS. It’s gone. I’ve searched and searched and it ain’t anywhere.Yet it still appears - and plays - from my Music Library. (Yes I’ve updated my Library and yes I’m using updated versions of controllers...)Of course, there’s no way to see any of the underlying data of the file to try to trace it.Anyone else seen anything like this?

I think I’ve just had more than a 4-hour call with Sebastian S’.  If it was Sebastian, I should start by thanking him again for his patience, professionalism, and not swearing at my in Romanian!  Be advised that any technical issues are usually my fault! After switching to a fibre optic broadband, using a Deco M4R Base Station and TP-Link ‘range extension’, my Sonos App lost visibility of my five Sonos speakers (3 x Sonos One (Gen 2), and 2 x One SL), and Sonos Boost, all of which I’d enjoyed using wirelessly with Norton 360 and four BT range extending disks for the past four years.During a lengthy support call, we reinstalled the Sonos App on multiple occasions, disconnected Sonos Boost, tried uninstalling (factory reset) and then reinstalling one One SL speaker, disconnected the router Ethernet cable from a BT disk to connect directly to two speakers in succession, uninstalled Norton 360 from a second mobile phone on which we used the Sonos App, turned off and on the power to all dev

Hi I’ve just bought a pre owned play 1 and would like to add it to my system but my system is S1 and the new play seems to have S2 installed I have factory reset the play 1 several times but still cannot connect tried to contact SONOS to ask if the downgrade tool was working in the last software release waited 30 mins then cut off 😡 I’ve tried to follow the advice online to no avail still cant connect does anyone know the steps to take to get this connected.

Every one facing the same terrible customer service from the support center ? Waited 48 minutes to get connected and they said hello and could hear so many people talking in the background, then went on mute and dropped off the call in few seconds ! All that waiting is waste .. trying to call back and now waiting time is 40 minutes ..  my arc won’t connect to surrounds and subs .. tuning doesn’t work, diagnostics doesn’t work, literally most of the app doesn’t work..  been in this situation for months and finally thought of calling customer care and it’s so frustrating !  anyone got fix from customer support or just need to wait got app fix in next few years ? 

I am trying to connect a Play:1.  It connects to the system but says it is not registered and the ‘Fix It’ button does not work.  I have tried rebooting and reconnecting several times.  I have also tried connecting the speaker via an ethernet cable, but when I do that the system does not find it.   Moderator Note - Recorded and removed diagnostics number.

My speakers have been offline since I switched my internet connection.  However the app won’t allow me to update the information for the new connection. The button to do so is basically frozen. It won’t work or allow me access to that menu.  Anyone else having this issue?  I have erased and re-downloaded the app, updated it, everything has been done!

When I choose YT Music from the Sonos music menu, all I see is a folder for playlists. When searching for specific songs/albums/artists in Sonos search, I never get any results. The only way I can get it to work on Sonos is just via AirPlay. Am I missing something or is the YT Music integration that limited?

I know there are longer threads about the new app, but as this is a specific issue relating to Mixcloud I thought I would create a new topicSince the update the only feature that works in the Mixcloud service is ‘favourites’. None of the ‘following’, ‘followers’, ‘uploads’, ‘stream’ etc have any content (despite all of them being populated in my separate Mixcloud app) . These are critical parts of the service, which allows me to search for music and which were present in the previous version. I have tried removing the service, then re-adding it, but to no avail. Is anyone else having any issues? 

Hey Sonos community.can I pair my Sonos move with a move2?thanks for any replies.

trying to connect a nas drive to my sonos system but keep getting an “access denied” message when I input the path, user and pass.

After changing my router my sonos system has never worked properly, the app constantly says ‘no products found’ I have rebooted everything and even created another sonos account but the app when first opened still says ‘no products found. If this continues I’ll be listing the system on ebay and buying another brand as this is poor from sonos,

When both Me and my Wife starts a song on Spotify via the sonos app, from our iPhones, the song wil start to Play from the sonos unit for 10 second or so, and then it stops. Follower by an error message saying «we could not Play <name of the song>, the connection to Spotify was lost». This started for a couple of weeks ago, we have not encountered exacly this problem before, been using Spotify via sonos for more than 10 years. Spotify works fine from just the phone, in the Car via Bluetooth or Dock conectoon, or via Denon Heos, All other services with sonos also works just fine. There is only a problem with Spotify with sonos. im thinking may be some settings have changed?any one have any sugestions? thanks on advance!😉Christian

Hi, I have had Sonos for about 5-6 years and I have never had more than 6 months where it have been operating without problems. After I updated to the Sonos2 app in seemed to be good. I think it was the only 6 months streak I have had where it actually worked properly.I have: Playbar 2x Sonos One Sonos MoveI have learned to live with the app only finding one or two of the speakers every time or that I have to ask my wife to put on some music because “I can’t connect to Sonos now”. This is not 1-2 times per week. This is everyday. Always.But now it’s gotten so bad that I can’t connect to any speaker anymore. Me or my wife. My wife has completely given up on the whole system and just plays from her computer or from the TV.I have done everything 50 times. I follow the instructions and i sends me in loops.I have reset all the products to fabric settings, deleted the app, rebooted the phone, reinstalled the app and tried to setup the speakers. The setup is OK, but when I am finished the spe

I have ceiling speakers powered by an Amp and am looking to add a sub to bring some more bass to my set up.  can I add the sub wirelessly and sync with the ceiling speakers. Ceiling speakers are used for music only so no concern about sync with the TV. Is this possible? Thanks

I am trying to add LivePhish to my mobile app so that I can play it on my Sonos One. When I try to add the LivePhish app, I am having issues with connecting LivePhish. I can click on the button that “I have an account.” The next page requires me to use a code to authorize my account. It asks that I verify that the “user code matches the code on the decive.” Nothing can appear on my sonos, so I cant verify the device. Anyone have any suggestions on what I’m missing? Thanks in advance!

I looked around to see if anyone had requested this, but I couldn't find it. Apologies if the request has already been done.  In the previous app it was possible to view the streaming format Flac, MP3,... It would be great to have this again (with bitrate indication if possible) 

My cousin gave me an unopened Ikea Symfonisk which was bought around 2 years ago. I tried to add it into my app but it says that Symfonisk needs to be updated. So i started the updating around 10 days ago and the update circle is still not completed. Everytime i click on the circle, it says “it will only take several minutes”. Does anyone have similar situation and how could i speed up the update?  Many thanks! 

The sound from my  Sonos speakers have just recently stopped 

I plan to mount my new Arc above a gas fire place without a mantle. Does anyone have experience with this? I realize that the mantle would help disipate heat. What is the distance reccomended between the Arc and the top of the fireplace?

Hi everyone, My Sonos investment is 2 X Play 5 gen 2, 4 X Era 100, 1 X Sub gen 2, 1 Beam (not sure gen 1 or 2) and one Move 1.Just moving into new place an looking to get some advice re. setting up for surround sound. TV will be wall mounted LG Oled 77” with Dobly Atmos. Room is 5.6m metres X 5.8 metres and good acoustics.Considering what I have already, what would be my best option? Am happy to utilise current Sonos gear elsewherea round the house if none of it is suitable.Can buy more gear if needed. Thanks in advance.

Why does the Home Theatre configuration keep dropping my 2 (L/R) sonos One speakers and the sub?

We spent thousands of dollars on our Sonos equipment and it is unable to be used because of a poor released terms of agreement with Sonos saying they are working on it with no time estimated of a fix?Poor support for this product plus no compensation from them for us not being able to use our system?I think I will trash Sonos and go to Bose

I got a new router and a new network name and need to move the entire system to the new network. What is the easiest way to do this?

Hello, Hello, I am having a problem with Bel RTL radio and 2 streaming applications.  Impossible to listen to Bel RTL via SONOS and with the RADIOPLAYER application.  However, if I listen to it directly via the iPhone the station starts immediately without any problem.  With the second MyTuner Pro application, it works but I have to try it several times. I also have to listen to another channel first and then select BelRtl. But again the sound does not start directly, I have to try it several times.Thank you for your helpBonjour,  Bonjour, je rencontre un problème avec la radio Bel RTL et 2 applications de streaming.  Impossible d'écouter Bel RTL via SONOS et avec l'application RADIOPLAYER.  Pourtant si je l'écoute directement via l'iPhone la station se lance immédiatement sans aucun problème.  Avec la seconde applicatio MyTuner Pro, cela fonctionne mais je dois m'y reprendre à plusieurs reprises. Je dois également écouter une autre chaine avant et puis sélectionner ensuite BelRtl. Mai
