Crossfade not working

Updated Sonos yesterday and now crossfade is broken.

Has anyone else experienced this and do you know of any workarounds?

Hi @gmbardman 

A small, but important, update: it does not seem to matter if Crossfade is on or not - I can reproduce this issue with it off, but only with certain tracks, as you said.

It seems to be the same issue that is being discussed here:

It has been reported and we will investigate - thanks for reporting!

Hey Corry!

 

Here is another diagnostic for Kitchen by Refrigerator- Song abruptly stopped and moved to next song.

 

Your confirmation number is: **********.

Same Here. Cross fade worked for several months after last time it was broken. And now again it does not work. Disappointing!

I’m new to Sonos. Just received my speakers today and downloaded the app. When I stream Spotify with other devices it uses my Spotify crossfade option. In Sonos, songs end and next one begins. It’s not smooth. I don’t see a crossfade option in Sonos app.

Tap the dots in the bottom right of the now playing screen, and toggle Crossfade on.

Update: looks like it’s only a problem with spotify. Apple Music works fine.

That suggests the function is available in the Sonos API, but Spotify hasn’t implemented it. You may want to reach out to Spotify.
