Sonos devices should have fixed (reserved) IP addresses, not dynamically assigned via DHCP.

If you can find one, the original Sonos Play:1 (not Sonos One). About $150. Or the Sonos One (Gen 1) when on sale ($169 right now on Amazon).
Probably the Play:1
It’s one of the oldest, smallest devices.available directly from Sonos for $150. Possibly cheaper on eBay
Don’t go that far as 150$. Cheap as 99$ from IKEA as starts.

I have the lamp, but the bookshelf should be the same. And it is fully Sonos inside.
@Automated_House, have you got the bookshelf one?
I don’t had a Sonos…yet. Will probably pick up a Ikea Sonos and blinds when they come out in October.
I’ve thought, you’ve already bought one.
This is the details of the new IKEA speakers.
@625alex and you could order one. In Canada is available too.
Nope, just know people that have. And that was back with the old integration.
Bookshelf one?
Good point. I forgot about the Ikea stuff. Although I have no experience with it.
Back to main thread
Does the Sonos Connect have an Ethernet port like the Connect:amp? Maybe hard wire the Connect?
Any Ideas on this one- Talking alarm clock
I also received the message that I had to update my Sonos asap. I followed the instruction and discovered I lost all of my text to speech functions. I was able to recreate almost everything with the speaker companion app, ok not perfect, but working. Then I tried to update Talking Alarm Clock- my all-time favorite app but I got this
and that was a nightmare. Now I I back to having a 1/2 working system but I am still getting the same error from Talking Alarm Clock app. I believe the app needs to be updated for the Sonos integration but I don’t know enough about programming to confirm my assumption. Any ideas?
The SmartApp is using capability.musicPlayer which the new Sonos device handler doesn’t support. Changing that to capability.audioNotification will likely address your issue.
@Brad_ST is right. I’ve updated the code so it works now (thanks to @GSzabados who fixed my code problem), just returning the favor to you that he did for me. I also did not test everything. Text to Speech works and Alarm sounds works… my guess is everything else works but I did not test.
Code is too long to post here… https://github.com/maxweltd/TalkingAC/blob/master/talkingcode
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! code is installed. The app has been programmed and yes the Sonos showed up I enable the alarm summary and nothing happened… not going to worry just yet. sometimes things take a little time. I have an alarm set for 4:00 AM I will let you how it turns out. thank you again
Hope it works. I just tried again and the alarm worked for me. I also tried the summary and it worked as well.
Since using capability.audioNotification… some issues I’ve seen.
So not sure why there is a delay when using the Sonos speaker, nor why Live Logging fails to pick up the details… Bose speaker works fine.
nope it didn’t work. I may try reinstalling the app. I am getting speech from other apps so I don’t think it is the speaker.
Hi, I’ve not updated my Sonos speakers yet as I’ve got lots of text-to-speech stuff.
However, the Speaker Companion app is no longer temporarily changing my Sonos volume as instructed. Is this due to the update?
I’m using the Classic app and UK based if that makes any difference.
Many thanks for any advice you might be able to give.
Just an update that SharpTools.io has been updated with support for the new Sonos device handler!
