Same problem here!

I had a similar issue with a sub gen 3 yesterday, everything setup, but it would fail to link to the account, now today, trying to add a beam, exactly the same issue. The sub eventually worked, so hoping the beam will with a few tries

This worked for me

Go to Account in the Sonos app and sign out. Then turn off the Wi-Fi on your phone. Then turn Wi-Fi back on. Go to Sonos app and go to account and sign in. Then click Gears. Click on the speaker and follow the prompts.

Trying from the iPad app (also updated version) worked the first time for me with regard to the account linking issue

I had the same issue with a new One SL for three days. I even deleted and reinstalled the app. But when I followed these instructions, it added my speaker to my account! Thanks for posting!
