    Hello Sadgoth, thanks for posting to the Sonos Community. It appears the diagnostic is reporting some minor wireless interference that could be causing issues with bonding the PLAY:1's as surrounds. To troubleshoot wireless interference follow the steps here: https://sonos.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3650

    Once the PLAY:1's are connected and set up as surround speakers make sure the PLAYBAR is receiving a surround sound audio signal. Not all TV channels are broadcast in surround sound and may not provide audio to the surround speakers. More details in our FAQ here: https://sonos.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3833

    Let us know how it goes.
