I set my Era 100 to 30% Autoplay Volume. When I start my Chromebox at night, it connects automatically, and the volume is set to 30%.
On the next morning, I want to listen to (quiet) music when I’m working. I select a station and select the speaker (SONOS Büro); the volume is still at 30% (picture 1).
I change the volume to 2% and click on “Play” (picture 2).
The speaker starts playing, but on 30% (picture 3)!
This can only be a bug. Please look into this, thank you very much!

Hi
Thanks for your post!
Were were able to reproduce this behaviour in our own testing - thanks for reporting this! We will investigate.
In the meantime, please change the volume in the Now Playing screen before selecting your music - that should prevent anything from playing too loudly.
I hope this helps.
+18What happens if you press play and then lower the volume? In my experience the music won’t plat immediately, so you won’t be “blasted” by music on 30% volume.
Of course, I can press “Play” and then lower the volume afterwards. That’s currently my workaround.
However, if there is an option to set the volume upfront, I expect it to work...
I think that:
In picture 2 you’re still in the alarms section. You make an “edit” but don’t save it.
In picture 3 you’ve selected a different piece of music to play and started the stream. At that point, volume is still 30%.
Maybe you need to schedule a “silence” track, playing at 2% volume, to play at some time after your 30% selection has finished and before you want the quieter play.
I select a SONOS Radio station. Then I select the speaker and adjust the volume (from 30 to 2). Then I click on Play, and the speaker starts playing, but on volume 30.
No alarms involved...
