Recently upgraded homekit with the new architecture (iOS 16.2). I can no longer Airplay to several speakers, all of which are hardwired or on Sonosnet. The only two speakers I can Airplay to are a Move and a Roam. 
 

I tried removing and re-adding a speaker in homekit but I can’t re-add it.  Also tried power cycling Sonos units, all the homekit hubs, and the router. Same thing. “Airplay - unable to connect”. 
 

Any ideas? I’ll try factory resetting a speaker tomorrow…

Hi @tg1 

Thanks for your post!

This may go some way to explain:

Although we rarely recommend factory resetting Sonos devices, in this case, we have received reports from users that it will help - as long as you don’t then add the unit to (new) HomeKit afterwards.

I hope this helps.
