Sonos One speaker trying to access program on the PC

My Sonos One speaker is trying to access my PC - I had a message from Norton that the device at an IP on my network assigned to the Sonos One was trying to connect to <program> on the PC on UDP port 1900. I unplugged the Sonos One.

Any ideas why the Sonos One would try to do this? The PC has never connected to the speaker, and Bluetooth on the PC is turned off.

False alarm - Sonos wasn’t trying to access my PC. I read the IP address wrong.

The Sonos is a networked speaker, it does a lot of network stuff. Tell Norton to ignore it.

I don’t do Windows so I’ll leave a better explanation to someone who does.
