Hello, for my new house I was thinking about a PC monitor connected to an Apple TV and using a pair of Era 300 as speakers. I will mainly listen to music through Apple Music, and watch some videos.I read that the Era 300 will only play stereo and not ATMOS while watching videos, but I can accept that. Most of the time I would listen to music, so I prefer a pair of speakers rather than a soundbar.The most annoying thing I read is that Apple TV would reset the audio output every time it goes to sleep, so I’d have to change it to Sonos all the times. Is that correct? If so, any workaround?Any other drawbacks? Would you suggest a setup like that?Thanks in advance for your suggestions. 

Ok so newer to Sonos. I’ve had a Sonos Playbar soundbar (older non-AirPlay capable) connected to my TV via an optical cable. I wanted the ability to AirPlay to it without turning on the TV so I purchased a set of Sonos Era 100 speakers to 1) add AirPlay functionality and 2) give my entire primary living space synced music.Is there a way to make this AirPlay to all 3 devices automatic? I have it setup in the Sonos App as a group with all 3 devices but to get sound on all 3 devices I have to start music, Then AirPlay to both the Era 100 speakers with the iPhones native AirPlay menu but then I have to go into the Sonos App to add the older Soundbar. Works great once going but hoping I’m missing something that would make it easier. 

I have the following setup:Sonos One speaker pair in the kitchenSonos Move, based in the home officeSonos beam in the loungeAlexa app on iPad and iPhoneIf I setup up a group, let's say Kitchen, in the Alexa app  to include the Sonos One pair and the Move then ask Alexa to play something on Kitchen only the Move will play anything.If I ask without specifying the group then the first speaker will play but any additional speakers I ask will start in a paused state.I've had people look and any resolution is only temporary. Any advice on how I should proceed?

Hey everyone,I'm planning to set up a couple of Sonos speakers in my detached garage, mainly for music while working on projects or just relaxing. I’m wondering whether it's better to run an Ethernet cable from the main house or rely on Wi-Fi. The Wi-Fi signal is decent but not perfect, especially when the garage door is closed.Has anyone done something similar? What worked best for you in terms of connection stability and performance?Thanks in advance!Moderator Note: Modified in accordance with the Community Code of Conduct.

Can 2 Sonos accounts coexist under the same  network?The reason I’m asking is because I want to manage my own Sonos system and the kids want to manage their Sonos system

Pretty much every Saturday 3 or 4 of the regional stations disappear from the CBC Music On Air. Tried on line chat support and seemed to have confirmed the issue but the chat suddenly ended.

Hello. I just received my Sonos amp with Sonos speakers. I was following the steps of first setup via my Android Sonos app. I got to point where i was asked to enter my home WiFi password so the amp can connect to it. After entering the password, the app shows a message saying ‘’Your Sonos Amp 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.’’ The amp wasn’t added in the app so i tried to unplug the amp, then plugged it back in but nothing happens. It is still not in the app. I have tried to factory reset that but with the same result. Can anybody help? Thanks

Just sitting in my living room when I hear what sounds like a tapping on a drum,  find the source and it’s my era 300 speaker,  when it boops the light above the speech bubble illuminates. anybody experienced this?

Hello, I would like to use my SONOS system on a local network that is completely separate from my regular Wi-Fi network. This is because I won’t have Internet access at the location where I want to use it. My plan is to set up and update the devices somewhere with Internet access first, and then move them to the local network with a separate router (no Internet connection). Devices: SONOS PORT SONOS ONE SL My question is:If I set up a dedicated Wi-Fi network (with no Internet access), will I be able to play audio from the SONOS PORT to the SONOS ONE SL over this local network? Thank you very much for your help! 

This morning I tried to turn on my Sonos ace headphones and the power button does not work at all no response from it so I can't turn them on without plugging it in and then putting them on they work perfectly fine but the power button not working is kinda really not what I expected for 450 Euro's 

Set up my account and now when sending and receiving emails it shows Sonos as the name instead of my name. I need to fix this quickly, Help!

For the last few months I’m completely unable to play anything from Apple Music on an iPhone to ANY Sonos device in my house. Apple will see them, it will show as starting playing - then nothing plays and it stops after a few seconds.As an aside, what was once a great system is now an ‘also ran’ in my mind. So much spent on Sonos with such frustration at this point.Yes, it will play music from the Sonos App.Yes, it will play Apple Music from the Sonos app.No, it cannot create stations like Apple Music does. 

I can’t play music on the YouTube music app via airplay. It works fine when using YouTube music via the Sonos app so I know I know there are no connectivity issues. I would rather play music via the YouTube music app and airplay as the app is way more intuitive and better to use than using YouTube music via the Sonos app. I’ve been having this issue for months now and it’s extremely frustrating. I’ve tried so many different trouble shooting steps from turning the speakers & phone off and on. Checking airplay settings, checking YouTube music settings and checking Sonos app settings and full removal and reset of Sonos devices… please help!! Lol

Ever since the app “redo” a basic function has been missing when playing podcasts via the Sonos app:  the ability to fast forward in 30-second and rewind in 15-second increments.   I’ve read that Sonos thinks this is not necessary because one can ask the Sonos voice assistant to fast forward or rewind.  There are two key reasons why this does not work well: 1) it assumes one has Sonos voice assistant enabled on every speaker and 2) it takes longer than tapping an icon.  I’ve also read that Sonos says we can just drag the timestamp to where we want.  True, but 30-second increments are perfect for skipping ads in podcasts and it’s difficult to be that precise with a slider.

Hi, my amp no longer offers control for my third party sub. It is still sending audio to the sub, I can’t control it via the sonos amp any more. I have rebooted the amp and checked I’m on the latest app. I also rebooted the sub and checked connections.  is this just how it is for third party subs now? 

My Sonos Roam disconnects and reconnects from my wifi network literally every minute. My network is a Unifi Cloud Gateway Ultra and U6 Pro AP. When connected, the Unifi console shows the Experience for the Roam as “”Excellent”. Other devices in the same room do not have this problem.Any idea how I can diagnose/fix this? 

I have a new router. How do I connect?

When launching my Sonos app on my iPhone I get the message that there is no products on my system. However this can’t be right as I have one speaker playing. What’s up?  

I understand that Sonos Roam (and Move) can’t currently be used as surround speakers as to protect the Sonos ecosystem and not cause issues of the speaker was moved away and out of range. BUT - why not program it so that, if it’s connected to the base / charging dock / cradle / power supply, then it is in home theatre mode and setup as a surround. Then if moved and disconnected from the above, it is in roam / stand alone mode and no longer in surround sound setup. Removing one speaker would disengage the counterpart of the surround setup and then temporarily default all channels through the front speaker(s). This means users could have smaller speakers setup for surround sound (which I know appeals to some) to enjoy a movie at night and some tunes out in the garden during the day, for example. It could even go one step further. When on dock and charging it is listed in the app as left rear surround for living room, for example. When disconnected it could become garden roam and hung on

Subject: Disappointed and Frustrated by Loss of S1 FunctionalityI’m writing to express my deep frustration with what appears to be a recent change to the Sonos S1 app. As of this week, I can no longer access or control the vast majority of my Sonos system—nearly 90% of it—due to what seems like a forced redirection from S1 to the S2 app. This effectively renders most of my whole-home audio setup unusable.To give some context: I built my home in 2018 and had a professional A/V team install a full Sonos-based sound system. I invested over $20,000 in ceiling speakers and amps integrated into my A/V rack, allowing music throughout every room and on the back deck. Soon after, Sonos introduced the S2 app, which only worked with my newer devices. Fortunately, up until last week, I could still switch between the S1 and S2 apps to control my full system seamlessly.Now, when I open the S1 app, I’m met with a splash screen instructing me to use the S2 app—which only controls a Move speaker and a

I have an arc, sub and speakers. Apple tv 4k, LGTV. Out of the blue, while watching a movie, the arc just started chiming continuously. Turning  it off did not stop it. I had to unplug it. Why? No alarms set on Sonos or voice control, no weather alerts, no.community alerts, no amber alerts, nothing. Just this ridiculous chime.. 

I moved to an area with Dish Fiber and I can connect the Boost to it, but nothing else.The app simply says “connect the product to power” and I do that - the progress bar goes on for a minute and says “ we were unable to connect”This was such a wonderful product but it is headed to the dump if it cannot be fixed.
