Question

Phantom voice control activation

Has anyone experienced Sonos voice control starting music while watching TV? This has happened several times, and I can’t quite figure out how or why this is happening.

I can’t say that SVC is started playing music  based off TV audio commands, but it has woken up and been unable to complete the command it thought it heard...if that makes sense.  It has not happened in quite some time.

Thanks for the reply Danny. I think it may have something to do with the dialog playing on the TV; something resembling “Hey Sonos”. This is constantly happening with my other voice assistant (Siri).
