I have a Sonos one which is blue tooth enabled.

i have bought a pro-Ject Blue Tooth Turntable and it won’t connect to my Sonos One speaker.

I understand that to pair my speaker with a device, I need to press and hold the blue tooth button on my Sonos until the light on the top flashes blue.

Here lies the problem. It doesn’t. It flashes orange. Red. Green and white. Never blue.

I have factory reset the device, and tried everything that I have read on line but nothing works. The turntable connected immediately with my headphones (not Sonos) so I know that the turntable is not the problem.

I have lost hours trying to resolve. 

Any help in laymen’s terms would be welcomed.

In layman’s terms: the One doesn’t have Bluetooth streaming capability, despite your claim. 


From the FAQ’s:

How does One (Gen 2) use Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)?

BLE can be used to temporarily communicate with your phone/tablet to simplify the first-time setup process. It does not support audio streaming.

 

Can I stream using Bluetooth?

This speaker does not have Bluetooth connectivity but streams audio content over your WiFi network. Internet access allows you to stream higher fidelity audio over greater distances, group or pair Sonos speakers, access your voice assistant and more.

 

So, it uses BLE in the setup phase, but that’s it. 


Thank you for taking time out to answer my question. 
sorry for the additional query, if it does not have Bluetooth  connectivity, how am I able to play music from my iPhone, through my Sonos?

I play the music directly from my own music library on iTunes stored on my phone.  Not through the Sonos app or music in my Sonos library because I don’t have any music on there.

i assumed that this was all via Bluetooth. 


AirPlay 2 is the method I use frequently. Works well with my Sonos Ones, not so well with my PLAY:1s (not enabled), so I just group them.
