It seems that I am unable to get the newly released Sonos Voice Assistance now that it has been released. I have updated all of my apps (both on the Mac and iPhone) checked for updates, which shows as up to date and I still don’t have the option available.
I have power reset the entire system.
I have tried using multiple mobile devices, same result.

App Version: 14.8.1

Build: 68329240

Can I get assistance?

Perhaps see if this thread can assist…

 

That was enough to point me in the right direction! 


It ended up being my Pi-Hole device blocking it. 

Any idea what specifically I would need to disable? 

Some further things to check are - that you are not using VPN or other Security software, such as a Firewall/Antivirus etc; on either the mobile device, or router, which perhaps ‘might’ be blocking access to the SVC service.

Perhaps try using a different DNS Server in your router configuration and see if that solves it. Maybe try the Google or CloudFlare Servers - 8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4 / 1.1.1.1 / 1.0.0.1

Also check your Sonos online account login lists your Sonos devices and that you have a Country set in place in your profile.
