Sonos Speakers Not Syncing with Audio Playback on My Website

Hi Sonos Community,

I’m trying to integrate audio playback from my website with my Sonos system, but I’m running into an issue where the sound isn’t syncing properly. The audio starts with a delay, and sometimes it doesn’t play at all through the Sonos speakers, even though other streaming services work fine.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

  • Tested the playback on different devices (laptops, tablets), but the delay remains.
  • Checked my Sonos app settings to make sure the network is stable.
  • Updated both my website’s audio player and my Sonos system to their latest versions.

Is there a recommended way to optimize website audio for smooth playback on Sonos, or has anyone else encountered issues with delays when streaming from a website? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hi.  I think you are attempting the impossible.  Sonos is designed for multiroom playback, and so a lag for buffering is deliberately built in.  What non-Sonos speakers are you trying to sync to?  How is the music being fed to Sonos?
