Playing through a projector causes sound to lag (Play 1)

I connected my Sonos Play 1 to my cheap projector that I bought online. It would seem that the audio lags. I have connected Sonos to projector via an aux cable. I don't think my projector has a Bluetooth option.

Not sure even how you could connect a PLAY:1 to a projector, since the PLAY:1 has no line in (which may be this ‘auxiliary connection’ that Ken is referring to?)

All Sonos analog line ins, available on these devices, have a minimum of a 75 ms delay: CONNECT, CONNECT:AMP, PLAY:5 (all generations) Sonos Five, Sonos Port, Sonos Amp.

That’s okay as the Play:1 doesn’t have a Bluetooth receiver anyway, nor an auxiliary connection. You perhaps need to describe the actual setup and connection in a little more detail.

The Sonos Amp also has an analogue in.

Oops, excellent point, I’ll see if I can alter my reply to include it.
