I have 4 different Sonos speakers in my home.  I just added voice control to 3 of them but the 4th device does not appear on the menu and did not give me opportunity to add voice control to it.  Any advice?

I have a Sonos Roam.  I use it as a speaker for my iPhone15 and both are relatively close together and to me.  Sometimes there’s no problem.  There’s a blue/white light next to the Sonos name and I can connect thru Bluetooth and play my music without an issue.  But then I try to do it again and there’s a little red light on the opposite front area and it won’t connect - very irritating.  For instance earlier today I played music thru the Sonos just fine = then tonight, tried to reconnect and play again, - no more white/blue light, the red light was there, plenty of power/battery and it is listed in my Bluetooth settings but isn’t found.  I try to go thru the connections to the ‘system’ which doesn’t work.  Then just now it’s on and receiving the music and all is fine.  I just want to have it be a reliable speaker.

I recently started having serious lip sync issues between my Apple TV and Sonos Arc.  It has worked fine for almost 2 years until a month ago. The issue is most prevalent with Netflix but exists across multiple video services on the Apple TV. I’ve tried using lip sync on all the devices to no avail.  I am running through a LG OLED TV with the HDMI arc set up, with the same cables I’ve used for the past two years. All of the devices have the latest firmware and software updates, all have been rebooted all have been unplugged and plugged back in, deleted, and re-added, etc. etc. etc.  I am able to isolate that the problem is with the Apple TV. When using LG’s built-in, Netflix or Amazon prime TV app, the lip sync issues completely disappear. The built in apps suck compared to the Apple TV but the Apple TV lip sync issues are unbearable (and, frankly, unacceptable and surprising For “technically advanced companies“ like these).  Any ideas?

I have been playing Sonos music to my hot tub via a Sonos Port RCA output that is hard wired through a mini plug at the other end that is plugged into the auxiliary input for the tub JBJ speakers - worked great. But the hot tub motherboard burned out, and the new updated hot tub motherboard will only accept a Bluetooth signal to run the tub speakers (no more hardwiring).Question.  Is there a way to now send a Bluetooth signal to the hot tub speakers through the Sonos Port, or maybe some other way ?

Bridge no longer attached/ unplugged but still shows in S2 app. I've reset and moved 2 gen 1 5s to s1 app and that app works. but can't get rid  and can't update s2 b/c bridge still listed . Uninstalled and reinstalled app But still pulls old data. How completely reset and reinstall s2 app b/c keeps using old info? Only s2 device is arc sl + sub. 

Normally I would think Alexa on the Arc would be a cool feature, but unfortunately it’s driving us crazy!!  The microphone on my Sonos arc can pick up a whisper across the house. We have an open floor plan and an Alexa speaker in the kitchen, but when we are in the kitchen and ask it a question or to play music or NPR, we get an answer from the Family Room Arc. Usually along the lines of “I don’t have that functionality“.  Since we are speaking to the kitchen echo, I don’t want the Arc responding. We have the same problem when we ask Alexa to turn on the kitchen lights. [Upstairs, where we have echoes in every room, and even in the thermostat, we have no problem requesting a light be turned on or off.] But on our main floor when we request the kitchen lights be turned on, they flash on and off as the two devices respond simultaneously. That’s probably TMI. Regardless, we need to turn off Alexa in our Sonos Arc. Any help or directions in accomplishing this would be appreciated!

I have a beam gen1 is it worth upgrading to beam gen2

I could run my symfonisk speakers on my Mac Pro, have upgraded to a Windows 11 System and can’t seem to use them as my primary speakers.  

When I choose an album from Apple Music it doesn’t show all the tracks that I would see if I played it on my mac?

I have an LG tv and sonos Ray.  The remote was configured to that it recognized by the sonos system, however the volume/mute is not working anymore.  When I try to adjust the volume the it is registering on the tv but not actually doing anything.  Any ideas?

Hi everyone!I'm facing an issue with connecting a new LG G3 65” TV to a new Sonos Arc soundbar. There's simply no sound coming through the HDMI eARC port (port number 2), despite following all instructions carefully and confirming that sound should be working. Both devices are updated to the latest firmware. Here's what I've tried over a fruitless 8 hours, with no success:1. Reinstalling and resetting both devices to factory settings, multiple times.2. Ensuring the cable is firmly connected to the HDMI 2 eARC port.3. Disconnecting all other HDMI devices, including an Apple TV 4K (3rd gen), which was disconnected from the TV almost all the time.4. Powering off the TV and soundbar and unplugging them for several hours, then reconnecting everything.5. Resetting the TV's A/V settings (pressing the Mute button three times).6. Testing the soundbar with Bluetooth, the TV's optical audio output, and Airplay - in these cases, the sound works perfectly, indicating the issue might be with the TV

I’ve got an older surround setup and have recently purchased Arc, Era300s and Gen3 Sub. I’ve read that you can run two subs as a config for home theatre but can you mix generations? My older sub is a Gen2.I’m still weeks away from setting everything up .. I need to reinforce a wall for the bigger TV and it won’t stop raining where I live :(Obviously I’ll find out when I connect everything but I’d like to know while the discounts are active.

Hi everyone,I have recently purchased a Sonos Arc and note that the vocals are left-sided. I have read a few other brief discussions about this issue on here, but I would be grateful for more recent insight into the problem. I'm very surprised that it is not a more prevalent issue for people. I've researched the Arc extensively online and only a couple of people amongst a vast number seem to have mentioned it. I know that the central arrangement of the speakers are asymmetrical, with the tweeter to the left of centre. Annoyingly this is proving to be very prominent and distracting. I sit about 7ft away from the Arc. I've tried altering the equaliser settings, loudness toggle and trueplay process, but it's still clearly to the left. I doubt anything will compensate for the physical asymmetry of the speakers. Is this really not a big deal to most? Thanks. 

Buenas, tengo un sonos Connect:Amp y me gustaría saber si en la entrada de audio por cable puedo conectar un televisor o solo puedo conectar equipos de música. Lo he conectado alguna vez y si me funciona, pero me hace un rateo en los altavoces y no se si es un defecto del amplificador. El rateo solo ocurre cuando conecto la entrada de audio por cable. Cuando lo uso de manera inalámbrica me funciona perfectamente. Me podéis ayudar?? Gracias

Hi there, recently re activated my sonos play:5 (1st gen) from 2years hibernation. Connecting easy but device keepsstopping/interrupting the song every 20min for approx 10 sec. Then it would continue the song as if nothing happened. Any idea how to rectify this? 

Arrggghh I’m getting to a point where I’m ready to throw in the towel and give up my loyalty to Sonos. I own Arc, 4xPlay One’s, Sub Gen2, PortFor some reason the Sub decides to disconnect from the system EVERY day. Resulting in 30 mins of turning of routers, items resetting networks etc In turn I can then lose the surround speakers meaning I have to reset them all!I’m in the UK and the system is all connected wirelessly to the latest Vodaphone Ultra Hub.When it works, it sounds great, but it’s flaky connectivity is driving me to despair.Any ideas? 

When browsing the Sirius XM -  All Live Channels within the Sonos App, it’s not showing the song title and artist.  It has been a feature within the app for years, and now it’s gone.  Is there a fix?

I set up my 3rd ERA 100 a few weeks ago.   Set up went as planned, the Era 100 was found and linked to my Wi-Fi and after unplugging and plugging it back in, it showed up int Sonos App.  After about 2 weeks it disappeared from the App and I tried several times to get it back...including resetting it at original location I set it up and also in the same room where I keep my Wi-Fi router.   Every time I reset the ERA was found by the App, I got the chime, it connected to my Wi-FI...but under no circumstances could I get it to show up as part of the Sonos System that shows in the App.   But the kicker is that it shows up when I use Apple Airplay on my phone, iPad or IMAC.   The Airplay list of devices lists my other 2 Era 100 speakers by named room and the 3rd now just at “Unnamed Room”...and it works perfectly fine using Airplay.   I guess my question is simple...the ERA 100 is certainly working and connected to my W-Fi, why won’t it show up in the Sonos App?

I just buy a Beam Gen 2 connected With HDMI eARC but when i play anything in Dolby Atmos on my Sonos App I just have the indication PCM Stereo What do I have to do to get Dolby Atmos sound?

Hi all, I have been digging into the forums here and on the web in general, and cant find a solution to this.  My Sonos One stopped responding to voice commands today.  I have tried all solutions that I could find, including deregistering & re-registering, unplugging,  rebooting my router, standing on my head while facing east…  well you get the idea.  Can anyone please help??? 

In the Sonos Music Library Settings, I put in the correct path to a network folder, but it doesn't work. It asks for username and password. I put in my Microsoft account username (email address) and password. After about an hour of the spinning circle, it fails. No feedback. What can I do?The folder is shared correctly. I can access it using File Explorer. I don’t know why it isn’t working because I get no feedback, aside from saying it doesn’t work.I’ve had this problem before. I’m sure I can figure it out eventually. I’m just bored with it at the moment. This is almost the only thing about Sonos I don’t like.

All of a sudden, my 2 Sonos Ones are not showing up in my Airplay list.  I have not changed anything and they were working fine a couple weeks ago.  I have tried power cycling them.  I have seen this exact issue on multiple boards and the answer is always that it’s “odd”.  How can it be odd if it is obviously happening to people on a fairy consistent basis?  Sounds like a Sonos issue that should be addressed.

 This return page doens’t work, always fails (I removed email and order number just for this screenshot).Could you please fix it?
