Mountson Premium Wall Mount for Sonos Move

Has anyone on here bought the new “Mountson Premium Wall Mount for Sonos Move”. I’ve just received mine but it comes with the front cover attached, which needs removing to access the screw holes, but I cannot remove it! I was wondering if anyone else had one and had any tips to remove the cover?  https://smile.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08ZNR42WV

How many Sonos speakers can I connect to Sonos Beam for TV audio?

I currently have 4 Sonos speakers (Three Play 1’s and One Play 1) connected. I want to buy two more One SL’s and connect them all for TV audio using the Sonos Beam sound bar. Using the S2 app, can I use all the speakers for tv audio using the Beam connected to the TV via HDMI or is the Beam limited to only two surround speakers? I want to use the S2 app to control all the speakers for tv audio just like I do with Tidal for music.

Possible to tune Sonos Radio?

Is it possible to “tune” a Sonos Radio station? I don’t see a thumbs up/down, but does skipping a song or adding it to your library affect the future selection for that station for me?

Only getting stereo PCM through Apple TV 4K + Arc + Sony x900F

Hi - I’m only getting Stereo PCM when I open the Sonos app and view ‘About My System’ Current setup:Sonos Arc, Sonos Sub Gen3, Sonos/ Sonance Architectural Speakers connected to Connect:Amp Gen2 (rear surround), Apple TV 4K, Sony X900F.The TV does not have eARC but does have ARC with Dolby Digital Plus pass through enabled. So I realize I wouldn’t get TrueHD (which streaming services don’t provide anyways) but I do expect to get better than Stereo PCM.Any settings I can modify to get a compressed version of Dolby Atmos/Dolby Digital Plus? I can’t even get multichannel PCM right now.When using the native android TV apps it does show Dolby Atmos but I would prefer to not to use that horrible interface.Super disappointed right now to spend this much on a Sonos setup and only get Stereo.

Control Sonos outside of home wifi

We really need a way to control a Sonos outside the home wifi. I went into holidays and I forgot to remove the alarm I had every day. My dad came to my house for one week and has to wake up everyday to turn Sonos off! I don’t understand that basic features like removing alarms cannot be done outside wifi.

I’ve got the Arc, the Sub, and the Amp working with my TV. I’ve got a Five in my kitchen I’d line to add in so I can hear the TV when I’m cooking. Is this possible?

Using Sonos Port with Bose SoundTouch 130?

HiThe only non-Sonos speakers I have is a Bose SoundTouch 130 sound bar & Sub in my basement. I’m wondering if the Sonos Port will allow me to add the Bose system to my Sonos app. The Bose has a co-ax port, is it as simple as buying a port, running a line from the digital out into that port on my Bose then setting it up? Or am I way off and oversimplifying this whole thing? I’d like to avoid buying an ARC and Sub for the basement simply because we don’t use it that often. Thanks. Bose Unit for reference: https://www.bose.ca/en_ca/support/products/bose_home_theater_support/bose_soundbar_and_1_speaker_home_theater_support/soundtouch-130-home-theater-system.html#v=soundtouch_130_black

Absolutely Love Sonos Products

Maybe not what everyone here wants to hear (no pun intended), but I have just purchased a One SL (awaiting another One to Stereo Pair) for my office workspace at home - I already have a Home Cinema set-up with a Beam and 2 Play 1’s. I am absolutely blown over by the SL and cannot wait for the other One to be delivered, because if the other One delivers as much as the SL does at the moment, I will be in music nirvana.

App only showing one product

I have a surround (Beam+sub+2xOnes), a Move and a Roam. I’m unable to see more than one product in my system. In the case of the Roam and the Move I cannot pair them as stereo because the system never detect both at the same time. If I turn one off, then the other is showing in the app.I tried factory reset all of them several times and make sure to Add product (I read a post where the problem seemed to be that the products were created in different accounts, but this doesn’t seem to be my case). I tried resetting the router, try to find the missing products, etc.Any more ideas? Thanks!

Issues with Alarm and Sleep Timer

As the title says. My alarm is turned on, but, isn’t playing. Also, I set the sleep timer, and it doesn’t turn off. Music plays just fine otherwise.

How to access my greyed out Samsung "Optical Out" option from Samsung settings to play with my Sonos Soundbar

Hello:  While my sound bar usually works great with my older Samsung TV using the optical out cable, it recently stopped working with my TV.  It does however work with my Sonos app when playing my steaming services, just not on TV.  When I try to deploy “TV” sound from the Sonos app now, nothing in the sound realm changes on my TV and I am stuck using my tv standard sound.  When I go into my TV settings to choose “Optical output” or “Optical sound” it is not an option now as this menu item is greyed out and I cannot access it.  I can also not do a “reset” sound because I do not have a tv remote and am using the TV navigation on the side of the screen and it won’t allow me to access the “reset sound” selection using the manual navigation.   Any thoughts or tips on how to get it working once again?  Thanks!

can I set it up the way I want ???

Hey all - hoping for some help..I have a sonos beam 2 hooked up to the tv, and the back of this same room I have a sonos 5 plugged into my record player. They are set up as seperate rooms.what I am wanting to do is get a PAIR of sonos ones.. I will then put them in the back of the room toeard the corners. I will create a pair and set it up as a home theatre to my soundbar (I am confident this will work) what I then want to have is the option to play music from my sonos 5 which is laid down on its side (which apparently makes it stereo although no obvious stereo effect obviously !) - and have stereo music coming from the paired ONES.  I hope that makes sense.. in my head I know what I mean, keen for your thoughts ! thanks

Problems with iOS 15.4.1

I updated my ipad and iphone operating systems (as usual) and now SONOS will not play my (3rd party) streaming radio stations. Problem appears to be an incompatibility issue with iOS 15.4.1. I can’t be the only one with this problem. What’s up?
