I have a Sonos One (gen 2). Will it group as surround sound with a Ray and Sonos One SL?

I have a Gen 1 Beam with the Sonos wall mount. If I upgrade to Gen 2 I’m presuming it will fit the existing wall mount. Is that right?

I’m using an Arc theater setup via 4k fire stick with a Wemax laser 4k projector. The setup has performed excellently for the past four months. Suddenly the theater speaker setup is no longer responding to this configuration. Sonos speakers will still continue to pair as normal to all other devices through the home

I would like to have the option to run our Samsung Frame TV sound through our Sonos ceiling speakers/Play 5. Our Sonos ceiling speakers are set up via amps in the basement and I zero technical ability, trying to hard wire anything is out of the question for me. Is it absolutely ridiculous to get a Sonos Beam and put it in the niche behind our Samsung Frame TV to allow me to set up the sound to come through the speakers? Will the Sonos Beam be totally useless behind the TV (I could in theory pull the TV away from the wall if I want to hear the sound a bit)? I cannot find any other work arounds for what I am hoping to do. 

Background:Family Room: AMP w/Sonos ONE (pair as surrounds)Backyard: Connect(gen2)Asus RT-AX82U/AX5400 RouterAfter installing new router and updating the wifi settings, the Sonos App (S2) does one of the following: 1) stays grey and doesn’t show up 2) only shows the Connect 3) Works perfectly for 3-5 seconds and then the system dissapears.I've gone in and adjusted the router settings as recommended in various help sections, turned off the auto-priority/QoS settings in the router, updated the channel to Ch6 within the 2.4 channel, did the whole direct plug ethernet cord into the amp, and ONE speaker to update the wifi information directly as recommended. Also rebooted all sonos products.The only thing working right now is the family room because it feeds audio in from the TV.Any recommendations or links would be helpful...spent the last few days becoming a fake fix-it dude. Thanks!

I miss the ability to control my sonos volume using my iPhones volume buttons.  Is the Sonos App dev team working on making this work again?  This was very useful.

Sorry if this was asked before! Sonos Move with blinking white light, held the power button down till it turn off, then did a factory reset, still same white light blinking non stop! Appreciate the help! 

Hello Sonos People!I have 5 Sonos products at home (4 speakers & 1 sub, which I love). Whenever my WiFi Eero has an update, I lose connections to all my Sonos speakers. The TV works fine, but I can't connect to them through the app.I have to restart my router or unplug my 4 speakers & 1 sub. Is there a better way to not lose my speakers after a WiFi update?Thank you,Gorby

I've got Alexa on my Sonos speakers. All of a sudden, Alexa will listen (speaker volume lowers), the light will flash, but there's no action on simple things such as "volume down" and "stop". Everything used to work fine for a year, but now nothing.I've tried all the usual, remove Alexa, re-add, re-install skills, reboot speakers... Again, this happened all of a sudden, without me changing anything.

Since lates update (16.0) two of my speakers is suddenly not available in Sonos app (from time to time). An ERA 100 and Roam.The other ERA 100 and beam+sub is ok. Workaround is to start the speakers that are visible in app, and pair physically.It has happened a few times since lates update

I’ve had a Beam (Gen 1) installed for a few years, using my Amazon/Alexa account to control devices in my living room. It’s worked flawlessly, until a few weeks ago.Alexa itself works fine - I can ask questions, interact with the service etc, but I cannot control any of my smart devices. After puzzling on this for a few days, I stumbled on the issue: the Sonos device is using the wrong Amazon account, one belonging to my daughter. The smart devices shouldn’t exist in her profile, but I don’t get any “errors” - just the little chime after issuing a command that suggests it’s worked as normal. I have other Amazon Echo devices in my home, and they’re working fine: for example, asking my Echo:switch on plug 1.. switches on plug 1. Trying the same with the Sonos gives the chime, but plug 1 doesn’t do anything (given that the other account doesn’t know about “plug 1”, I’m surprised it doesn’t say something along the lines of “I don’t know about device plug 1”) if I ask the Echowhat profile a

My sub mini runs with 2x one SL’s.  Problem is every day, sometimes 3 times a day, it asks me if I want to add it to a trusted network.  It is the same network everything else Sonos related is on.  This is driving me mad. Any ideas?

I had Gen1 and Gen 2.  Got MOVE2 as a gift.  My son set up gold Sonos app w his email.   Now those two new MOVE2 are not showing up in my overall system.  how to correct?

Hi I am flying Singapore Airlines with Beam 2 sound bar can it be carried in the cabin baggage. Instead of check in luggage.  The dimensions are as given below. 

I am unable to connect my Move 2 to my Xfinity XB8 gateway. I also have the gateway connected to an Eero mesh network.when I login to the Xfinity app, I see that my Sonos speaker is connect with a “strong signal”. I have paused and unpaused which does nothing.the Sonos app does not show any devices however and the “account”, “services” and “system” menu options are greyed out. I was on with customer support for an hour and have restarted the router, rebooted the speaker and restarted the app multiple times.I suspect it may be the mesh network but I am less familiar with that.  ideas?  

Hi!Since some time, the Sonos app on Android activates two notifications (one is normal and works well, the other is like a ghost notification, useless).I’ve tried to reinstall the app but with no effect. Problem is present on multiple devices, with Android 11, 12 and 13.Other with the same bug? 

Equipment: Sonos Arc, Sonos Sub, 2x Era 300’s, Roku Ultra, LG TV. Connections: Roku Ultra to LG TV; HDMI Arc from LG TV to Sonos Arc Soundbar. All 4 Sonos speakers are working together when playing music thru Sonos via Sonos S2. With TV running, sound is coming thru the Sonos Arc. I am able to control volume and play/pause of the whole system from the Sonos Era’s. But no sound is coming from the sub or the Era’s.When playing music thru Sonos all is happily working.  The Roku is new. When I was using an Apple TV Gen 1, all was working together. 

So I have a stereo pair of Era 300s used for music listening. I have them on the either side of my TV facing the couch. Recently I found out that my TV can send stereo signal via Bluetooth to the speakers, which works flawlessly and sounds pretty decent after the initial pairing. However, during subsequent watching, there are cut-outs intermittently  . I’ve gone through the support route but all I got was the generic recommendation to disconnect and reconnect the pairing, which also does not always resolve the problem from my experience. And frankly, I just don’t want to do it every time I want to watch TV.Wondering if anyone else has experienced this and found a fix? Thanks in advance! 

hi.  I had my sonos arc stolen, its not showing on my s2 app but is my alexa.  can i stop it from working?

Hi,I just setup a new system in our holiday home, with a Sonos Amp in the living room and two Sonos Ones in the bedroom.Originally the Amp was connected via cable and the Ones via WiFi, but it seems that is making issues with our Unifi switch/access point. Initially I could not even add the Amp to the system, but after I switched it to WiFi that worked.But now the Amp disappears from the network after 30-60 minutes of it coming online. So initially when I start the Amp I see it in the Sonos app, but at some point it disappears and is also not reachable anymore on network level (ping). I tried to switch it back to cable instead of WiFi but the problem is exactly the same.Could that be again an issue with Unifi? Unifi recommends having all Sonos devices either wired or wireless, but in my case this issue also occurs with all devices being wireless.Any ideas on how to debug/solve this?Regards, Robert

I recently got a Pro-ject debut carbon Sonos edition and i am trying to connect it to Era 300. i followed all the instructions, connected the RCA cable to the Pro-ject provided RCA-Aux adapter and then to the AUX to USB-C adapter provided by Sonos. I can hear the music but the volume is very low and there is a constant static, its a humming sound. The volume of the static noise increases when I increase the volume. I redid the RCA connections, havent connected the ground to anything as instructed. Is there something i can do to fix or could this just be a fault in-built pre-amp?

Hopefully this forum can help improve the uselessness of my Sonos products. I have an Era 100 (recent) and Sonos Play (had a couple of years), and constantly annoyed at the app trying to load and find my system. Then go through the hassle of it finding my system as well as a neighbours. Once selecting my system and it’s working, Alexa and hey Sonos don’t work. Occasionally Alexa does, but mostly not. All I get is Sonos is having trouble connecting to your music provider. Oddly, the Sonos one Alexa works reasonably well, but sometimes plays something completely different to what you asked her to.  I have the S2 app  it didn’t notice any difference is ease of operation. Not impressed by the sound quality either, hoped the Era 100 would be better but apparently not.  Any help troubleshooting would be welcome.

I created a group with ARC and pair of Move 2 but after turning off TV and turning back on I have to reconnect the PairWhat am I not doing correctly 

I have 5 Sonos play 1 speakers, each installed for a different room in the house using the Sonos app. Initially, I connected each speaker to the modem with a cable and after introducing all the speakers, ensuring their functionality and sound playback, and assigning them to their respective rooms, I switched them to Wi-Fi mode and connected them to the network. Each of them works correctly. However, the issue is that I can't see all of them simultaneously in the Sonos app. When all the speakers are connected to power, only one of them is active in the app, and I can use it. If I unplug it, another speaker designated for a different room becomes active, but the rest remain inactive. I suspect the problem lies in the way I set them up because I had only one network cable. As a result, I installed each of them separately in the app and couldn't figure out if all of them are active when connected with the cable or not. However, I know that each of them works when connected with either the
