Hey there,My beam is not visible from the android app, but it’s still working, if using the TV the audio comes from it, and if I use the Mac app or group it via the Sonos voice assistant, it connects and plays music.I have unplugged the beam both from the TV and power, but I still have the same issue. I’ve also restarted my phone and nothing.any ideas?

I have the gen3 sub and the Arc set up on S2 for theatre. Sounds great!  how hard is it to set up a separate setup on S1 to run all my older non compatible speakers for music only?  3 play 11 play 3 1 play 51 sound bar  

Does anyone know what the new dots in the System tab signify? There is nothing mentioned in the release notes. 

Hi,i have a system of 3 sonos one and 1 play 5. (2.gen) i have the Google Home setup using the samme Google account on all system (Spotify, Google Home and sonos) when i try to add Google assistent as a 3. party voice assisent sonos redirect me to a sonos help page in stead of a configuration page?! I have tried to uninstall and reinstall All apps

Just bought the Sub Mini to complete my Beam 2/2xOne home cinema and when I try to connect them to the rest of the system the app keeps saying it can't be done because there is a new update app available but it's not on the play store so I need to wait. Please tell me this is some sort of joke. Who on earth disables important features of an app before the update is available. Is this the type of thing I can expect from Sonos? I'm not best pleased I'm sat here after having spent hundreds of pounds on this sub and can't even use it.

Hi @Corry P,I've just noticed that the issue discussed in the thread below has been solved. I don't know exactly when, as I was travelling these last weeks.But, the fix seems to have generated another bug:Now it's the opposite: when playing a non-Atmos song after an Atmos one, the volume becomes very much louder. If you pause this loud song and then resumes playing it, the volume returns to its normal level. Additionally, in general, all songs appear to play in a lower volume than before. When listening to my Play:1 in another room, I don't have any of these issues. When listening to sources other than Amazon Music, I also don't have any issues.My setup is a Beam Gen 2 with a pair of Symfonisk bookshelf speakers as surround, no Sub.Could you let the team that worked on this fix know, please?c.c @Mr. T , @Jimmy C 

Has anyone tested the sub with trueplay after the 14.18 update? Is it fixed or still an issue? 

Hi,I have 3 sonos symfonisk speakers, 2 in the living room where the router is, and 1 in the kitchen. I have never been able to connect to them using WiFi so I connected one of the speakers by ethernet cable to the router to create a sonosnet. The issue I am having is that several times per week when I try to use the sonos-app to play music, it can’t connect to the speakers. I have to physically disconnect the power and connect it and wait and then the app can connect. I also have playback issues where songs are skipped, stutters or stop being played for seconds.I had this for a year now and I have never had it working properly and I am very disappointed in these products.Does anyone have any idea what can be done or is this just a waste of money?

Bonjour J’ ai acheté en 2020 via Sonos, une platine disque Pro-Ject Debut Carbon. Elle fonctionne sur un Play 5 mais je souhaite à présent l'installer sur un ampli MARANTZ. Le souci est que le son grésille, avec ou sans masse, et que la musique est donc inaudible. Pourriez-vous m'aider svp ? Je suppose que cette platine n'est pas uniquement faite pour fonctionner avec un HP Sonos. Faut-il ajouter un autre élément?Bien cordialement

Some while ago @countryman came up with an answer to this Question, but the eBay links that pointed to his solution have now expired. Does anyone have the answer?I have a Samsung TV that currently feeds a Sonos Beam via the HDMI-ARC socket on the TV.  I need to extract the audio from this feed so that I can drive a pair of headphones at the same time as feeding the Beam.   @countryman solution was as follows. Just need the original values of X and YAvoid the passive optical splitters.  You get what you pay for. Buy an active optical splitter such as X . Note that the identical unit on Amazon is about 3x the price of this one ! Buy a simple DAC such as Y Connect up the Samsung to the IN of (2), the Sonos Beam to one of the (OUT) and the DAC to another (OUT) Job done. 

After reading many similar complaints, I understood Sonos considers it is up to YT to fix the issue. I do not agree because I chose Sonos because it is YT compatible. If it is not compatible, Sonos is lying when they say they include the YouTube Service. For my part, most of my playlists have missing songs, and some even have all the songs unavailabe!I am very disappointed because the devices are very good, and the app is also nice. 

I have an arc two subs and two ones. I won’t to be able to hear my music in other rooms.  What’s best options to group with?  

Hello! Considering the Arc or Beam but would love if I could use my existing Bang Olufsen speakers together with the soundbar and not have to get the Sonos sub. is there anyway i can do that?i have a pair of Beolab Penta and Beolab 3000 and a Beomaster 4500 amp.  is there some gadget that would make it possible to use my existing speakers with a sonos soundbar? best regardscarl  

Hi,I am planning to simplify my existing whole house Crestron system and do not want use any of existing kit which is getting old and takes up a huge rack.  Can someone confirm my understanding is correct please.My understanding is that I could get up and running using a Sonus amp and connect four wired (passive) speakers and sub to the amp and with the app I would have Sonus working in say the lounge.  Is this correct? Each amp is a zone, therefore, even though I only have 2 ceiling speakers in 2 other rooms, I cannot connect all four to an amp (number 2) as cannot control independently.  Is this correct? Assuming I have 1 & 2 above correct.  In order to control four rooms independently (using existing ceiling speakers) I need 4 amps?   Am I right in thinking the Sonos amp has the functionality of the port with the addition of ability to power speakers and therefore I don't need to purchase?Thank you! 

Back in May 2022 I attempted to buy online a “2 Room Sonos One Set”. I have a 30% Upgrade Discount on my account which I was trying to use.Logging on to my account the 30% discount is clearly shown:  , and the online pricing shows the 30% discount being shown i.e. £398 down to £278.60 = 30%… ...placing the item in my basket still shows the 30% discount pricing i.e. £278.60… ...going to checkout…...hey presto the pricing changes to only a 15% discount!!!! I raised this issue back in early May with Sonos support, sending them the above screenshots of my account and the correct 30% discount turning into the incorrect 15% at Checkout. Sonos support agreed that it was a website error, and that the issue would be fixed.Since then I’ve lost count of how many marketing emails I’ve received telling me that I have a 30% Upgrade Credit on my account, and how many emails I’ve had asking for feedback on how Sonos was performing.If only they spent as much effort fixing their online Shop... 6 months

I had this issue before and I gave up on the product but after a few months, replugged it in and it worked fine. My sound system had been working fine for many months and I got the Sonos Sub which I loved but now randomly this issue has appeared again.Sonos beam keeps flashing a white light even though I have it connected via ethernet cable to the router. I’ve tried unplugging the router as well as the Beam. I can’t even factory reset the beam (doesn’t matter how long I hold on to the join/infinity button, it keeps flashing white). Very frustrating as I got the subs + 2x SL ones to pair and now none of them can connect to my TV.Diagnostic number: 197347082

Hi, Is anyone else experiencing problems with PocketCasts this morning. It’s no longer browsing to the Podcasts linked to my account. Sonos Service status is showing that it should be working?

HI!I CAN USE 4 SPEAKERS OF 8 OHMS EACH MAKING IMPEDANCE MARRIAGE IN 2 OHMS AND ONLY PLUG IN ONE AMP CHANNEL? I ALSO HAVE 4 SPEAKERS OF 4 OHMS EACH, I WOULD LIKE TO CONNECT EACH PAIR IN PARALLEL (2 OHMS) USING THE TWO CHANNELS OF THE AMP. I CAN DO THIS? THANKS

Can I not pair a sub mini with a gen 3 sub to an Arc with a pair of One SLs?

I have just purchased a Sony Bravia 2022 model. Upgraded from an LG. I was able to hook up to my Sonos Play:5 on the LG. Now, I cannot for the life of me work out how to get it to work with the new television. Help!!! 

Howdy All, I have one of two S2 speakers that alerts an unwanted “bong” alarm daily at midnight and I can’t figure out where the command is activated. Diagnostic number :846578419.  I’ve check all my phones and tablets to turn off or quit Sonos activity but the midnight bong continues. Any help much appreciated.

Hey Sonos gurus! I’ve read through all of the outdoor TV wiring setup topics and couldn’t find a solution to my current setup and what I’d like to do. I’ve got a home with a detached garage that is about 100 feet from the house.Current Setup:HouseLiving Room - Playbar with 2 surrounds (Play:1’s) and SUB Attached to the back of the house: Connect:Amp + 2 Sonance Outdoor Speakers 1 Play:1 in master bedroom.GarageSonos Connect attached to an AV receiver with Left/Center/Right speakers. The connect is “hardwired” via a mesh access point. I am adding a TV mounted inside my garage with an extra long-arm to swing out via a second interior garage door for outdoor movie nights. My garage is a 1-car garage with doors on either side to allow for a second car to be parked inside the fence line. Ideal Setup: I’d love to be able to use the Connect setup (Left/Center/Right + Receiver) in combination with the Connect:Amp setup (2 Solance speakers) to play the audio from the outdoor TV. I do not believ

Hi I currently own Sonos Arc and Sub. I have In ceiling speakers and outdoor that where already in the house. What products do i need to purchase so I can join the Lounge room in ceiling speakers into my theatre setup and also be able to choose to play music outside separately.

I have a LG C8, Sonos ARC+ Sonos SL Ones x2, Chromecast with Google TV - something it randomly disconnects from the Sonos arc and I get this volume bar at the bottom. Has anyone else experienced this? No sound will come out.   

My sonos speakers keep going line or are not in the app. I’ve done ever troubleshooting exercise and talked to the support desk. This problem seems hopeless. Is there anything I can do to escalate and get a result? My system was fine for years. I’m frustrated and want to throw all this stuff out.
