Does anyone else use there Sonos system to listen to books and podcasts from Audible? Just feeling like the music aspect of the system is the most important thing and any other type of listening is not a big deal. 

I love being able to go from room to room while listening to music or a book without interruption.

What frustrates me most is not being able to find books by title or author in the Sonos system (even before the app change). Opening a book in the Audible library and sharing it with my Sonos speakers works. I wonder why it  The problem with this is that the book doesn't show up in the "recently played" list.

At present, starting in the past few days, I can't do the share between apps because when I share, the volume on the speakers comes on at 100%. Starting this morning, 8/4/24, there is now no way of controlling the volume, that still comes on at 100%, because the app is not acknowledging that it is playing anything. 

Hello,

Finding Audible Books in Sonos:
To search for Audible titles or authors within the Sonos app, follow these steps:
Open the Sonos app.  yourtexasbenefits login

Navigate to the “Browse” section.
Look for “Audible Audiobooks” in the available services.
If you haven’t already, authorize Audible on your Sonos speaker and sign in with your Audible account.
You should now be able to search for specific titles or authors within the Audible library directly from the Sonos app.
Recently Played List Issue:
It seems that when you share a book from the Audible app to your Sonos speakers, it doesn’t appear in the “recently played” list.
Unfortunately, this behavior is a limitation in the current integration between Audible and Sonos. The Sonos app may not always reflect recently played Audible content.
As a workaround, consider keeping track of your audiobooks separately or using the Audible app directly for recent playback history.
Volume Control Issue:
The sudden volume increase to 100% when sharing between apps is unexpected.
To troubleshoot this:
Ensure that your Sonos speakers are correctly set up and connected.
Verify that the Audible service is added to Sonos and that you’re signed in with the same account as your Audible app.
If the issue persists, consider reaching out to Amazon/Audible Support for further assistance.
