Apple Music volumes still too high after 15.3 update

Since 15.2, Apple Music playback is far too loud and is preventing thousands (if not millions) from using their Sonos systems properly. 
 

15.3 has just come out and it does NOT resolve this issue. Apple Music playback is still far too loud.

Sonos support also do not care about the issue, will no longer respond to me, and have closed my ticket as being fixed.

Had a response from Sonos support today. Now confirmed that their developers are aware of the issue with Apple Music volume and are working on a fix, but no ETA.

I’m still having the same issue as well… it’s quiet frustrating how long Sonos needs to fix this problem, especially since I can’t downgrade to an older version…

And the new update with various bug fixes does not resolve the issue, hence the new thread. 
 

However, it would be nice if Sonos would provide an update on their resolution progress instead of closing my issue as resolved and staying silent.

Same problem here, sound is still way to load. Even at sound settling 1. 🤔

Yep. Can’t quite understand why it is taking Apple so long to fix the issue. I’d think it would be a fairly simple thing on their server.

Seriously, when is this going to be fixed?  Volume level 1 is too loud!  I’ve been following this problem for over a year now with no solution from Sonos.
