You cannot directly wire a ONE SL to your computer and play analog audio output from the computer. You could use another SONOS product that offers an analog Line-In (FIVE, PORT, AMP) or use Airplay 2

If you have a disc library stored on the computer, you can access these as your SONOS library, but this not the same as playing audio from a web page or other App. You can add music services to your SONOS setup, but these play directly online, not through your computer.

To give additional color, Sonos uses a connection to your router, and the LAN, rather than a direct connection such as you’re attempting. They are not direct connection devices. Nor, frankly, are they designed for use as computer speakers at all, although there is this thread already.
