Smart home integrations

Hi All,  Here’s what i would like to achieve: PIR is triggered, or, laser beam is broken  Notification is sent to a Smart Hub Smart Hub triggers Sonos Sonos plays a Dog Bark at Max volumeFirstly - is that possible? Secondly, what Smart Hub offers the best integration with Sonos to allow me to do this? Smarthings? Homeseer? Hubitat? Thank you

I wonder if there is any plan to make possible the use of Sonos Move for audioconferencing?  Given that this speaker has also a microphone and a Bluetooth connection, it should be quite straightforward to offer this functionality, isn't it? As for me, I would find it useful to have my Sonos Move at the office and switch now and then in audio conference Mode when needed....

I have a Sonos Arc and just bought a HomePod mini and want to be able to control the Arc through Hey Siri commands like Hey Siri turn the volume down on arc. I have added the arc to the home app but it says controls unavailable, when I ask Siri to change the volume it says there was a problem. I have removed the arc and re added it a couple times and still no luck. Any help would be appreciated. 

Does Sonos one integrate with Nest Hello? As in, does the Sonos One speaker sound a chime when someone presses the smart doorbell at home? Searched around, could not find anything conclusive. This should absolutely be a supported api/feature of the integration and I am looking to get more clarity ASAP on planning some smart home purchases. Any advise is appreciated!

Hi!   New owner introduced to the Sonos family as of this weekend, picked up a pair of One SL’s to be used in the garage. Previously I’ve been an all HomePod guy.    So here is my issue, and let me know if this is simply just not a feature of non-Apple speakers via AirPlay. With my HomePods, I have each designated to specific rooms - and to play I hit the AirPlay button, scroll to select desired room, browse music and play. By this method, all sound is completely separated from my phone, IE: if I wanted to pull up YouTube the sound will go through my phone and the music will be uninterrupted on the speakers. Also, adjusting my phones volume with the buttons will do just that, adjust my phones volume and not the speaker volume. I figured this would be exactly how it would work on a non-Apple speaker when connected to HomeKit. To my dismay, my ‘Garage’ room completely disappeared from the AirPlay toggle once I removed my HomePod from that room and added the two Sonos One’s. The only way

Hi,I bought a Sonos Beam soundbar for my TV and am happy with it.  But I also want to add the soundbar to my Google Home Speaker Group.  I have seen threads on this support group saying this is not possible and I certainly have not been able to do it.  I just wonder that since the threads are the best part of a year old, has there been any progress in fixing this problem?  Without this being resolved I will not be purchasing any Sonos add-ons.  My Bang and Olufsen speakers are part of my Google Home Speaker Group.Thanks. G St

When will voice assistants be available in Colombia? 

I have just purchased an Arc and set it up on its own S2 system , whilst leaving all my other speakers on my old S1 system.  I know have an issue with my harmony ultimate remote where it scans for the Sonos system and allows you to control it. The issue is that the harmony finds the old S1 system and not the new S2 system.  is it possible to rename the Sonos system so they appear as separate systems when the harmony searches for them, then I should be able to select my arc when setting up the harmony ?  

Hola comunidad  les cuento lo que quiero hacer.

Can other people come into my home and use their music app on their smartphone and connect to my sonos speakers?

Hi, I have recently brought a new Samsung Q70 series TV and a Sonos beam.I have been though all of the setup and got it working so I can play the tv sound through the beam. My question is how do I disable the beam when I am just watching tv and don’t want the sound coming through the beam.  I only really wanted the beam to use while watching movies and Netflix style shows.  every time I switch the audio Settings back on the tv it diverts straight back to the beam.  any ideas ?

We have a small house so I was looking at one or two Sonos Ones to pair with my Beam for TV but then be able to separate them for general music listening in separate rooms or on the balcony  - is this easy to do and would you recommend with one or two One’s

I have a "good morning" homekit scene that comes on when I say “Hey, Siri, morning”. It also activates audio playback on my Sonos speaker in the garage via AirPlay. I have three (3) Apple TVs. Since TvOS 14 the AppleTv turns on the Basement Apple TV. If I switch the TV off again, which puts the AppleTv into stand-by mode, the audio playback is also stopped.Before TvOS 14 the TV didn't turn on when I controlled my Sonos speaker via HomeKit.Does anyone else have the problem and know how to solve it?

I moved into a house with Sonos speakers in each room. But have no instructions. I have a small tablet fixed to the wall where I should be able to control it. But after downloading the app on my phone and trying all I know and understand I can’t get connected. can any one help? thanks mezzabeth

Can you use sonos arc to show cameras on TV with Alexa? I have blink cameras.

I know this might be an empty conversation but wanted to throw it out there. Sonos bought Snips Voice Assistant Service more than a year ago and we haven’t heard or seen anything come of it. While I can put up with Alexa (it works about 25% of the time) I would really LOVE and prefer something that is focussed on music management oriented usage. Any thoughts, updates, rumors or ideas. 

Bonjour, Ma wifi se coupe tous les soirs et donc tous les jours je suis obligé d’aller dans l’application Sonos pour réassocier l’ensemble de mes sonos.Je voulais savoir si il était possible avec IFTTT ou Raccourcis iPhone ou autres, de faire en sorte qu’a chaque fois que le wifi se remet, les enceintes s’associe de nouveau. Par avance, merci.

This is so frustrating spending so much money last month for the most up to date equipment and not having it work. It did at first but for the last week the S2 app can't connect to the Arc, Sub, or one of the Sonos One SL. The app only finds one of the One SLs. That's it. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app, reset each device and the router, tried an ethernet cable. WTF

I’ve seen a few older topic’s saying Sonos is currently not doing anything. But perhaps over time things do change. I was curious if there are any plans that somebody from Sonos or in the community knows of to have native integration between Sonos and Philips Hue lights?I currently see there are third party apps who offer it, but am a bit hesitant to allow third party apps access to something like this. With Philips Hue and Sonos popularity it would be great if both could do something like this. And make me feel more at ease if it came from the actual producers of the hardware then a third party.

I have a Beam + Sub + 2 Surround speakers (Sonos Ones). My TV (with its Beam) is installed in a lift cabinet. When the TV is off, the TV and the Beam are lowered deep inside that cabinet. Since the voice assistant defaults to using the Beam’s microphone and speaker, it becomes difficult if not impossible to use Alexa when the TV is off, buried in my lift cabinet. Having two Sonos Ones sitting there, each capable of providing Voice Assistant function but disabled by default is quite frustrating.Is there a way, in a surround configuration, to select the microphone and speaker that the Voice Assistant uses rather than defaulting to the Beam?

Can you group Sonos Ones in stereo with Sonos Beam Sound bar?

I have several Sonos products including a pair of Play 1s with which I am happy.   If I want to include voice control what do I have to do ?   

Hi,I will send the below text to Philips, but I would like to check with the Sonos users here to confirm if the below will work and how they have set up their configuration. Any comments based on experience would be greatly appreciated.Regards,MIBUKBefore I buy the Hue HDMI Sync box with the Hue gradient light strip for my TV, I have 2 questions. Hopefully, you can answer them.“1. I have a Sony X950G TV which supports Dolby Atmos, HDR10, HLG and Dolby Vision. It’s connected to a Sonos Playbar which is connected to the TV via an optical cable. I have an Apple TV 4 4K, Nintendo Switch, a TIVO cable box and PS3 connected to the TV via HDMI. 2. The only change I plan to make in the near future, is to upgrade the Playbar to the Sonos Arc, which receives sound from the Sony TV’s HDMI eArc port. Can you confirm that the above two setups will work with the Philips HDMI Sync box and gradient light strip in terms of video and sound? Also, the HDMI cables all work, but is there a minimum standard

I am going to buy either a Move or a Five as my first Sonos speaker. but eventually plan on having several.  It appears that both will allow me to set up my Dot or Mini with my Spotify account so that I can just say to the Dot or Mini play x and the music will come from my Sonos speaker (i.e., the Sonos will be my default speaker). Am I correct in this?I also would like the Dot or Mini to respond through my Sonos speaker for all responses.  For example, if I ask what the temperature is, it would respond through the Sonos speaker.  It appears neither the Dot nor the Mini will do that, but it is hard to be sure from reading/viewing reviews.  Will all responses for the Dot or Mini be able to come from the Sonos speaker?Given those criteria which would do what I want, the Dot or the Mini?  Am I correct in assuming that both the Move and the Five would work the same via WiFi?

I will have the TV audio on my arc, ones, etc. and change to Spotify or another music source. However, when I try to switch the audio back to my TV, it says “living room tv does not support that”.  I have tried changing the name in the Alexa app and in the Sonia app, neither has worked. I have found a couple work around but they both take a couple manual steps - I want to change between the two verbally and without the need for remotes or restarting systems. This should not be this hard. Please help!
