C4 Novice Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Hi all, I have recently added a Sonos playbar with surround speakers to my lounge room. The playbar and two Sonos Ones are grouped together via the Sonos app to form a surround system for the lounge. All three items are connected via WiFi to my local network and are all online in the Sonos app. I am having trouble getting volume control to work through Control4. I have added the Sonos network driver and Sonos endorsed driver for the playbar. No matter what I do with my connections and end points, I can't get the volume control to work. Has anyone had any experience with this type of setup that can point me in the right direction? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstafford388 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 have you made the optical connection from the TV to the soundbar in composer? if not composer can't see an audio path to the soundbar and will not control the volume. msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I have made this connection in Composer already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstafford388 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 are you sure the integration was done properly? you selected the player in the dropdown? you could post a pic of the driver/endpoints if you want us to take a look at them.

C4 Novice Posted February 14, 2020 Author Share Posted February 14, 2020 Thank you all for your replies. I ended up deleting my existing Sonos drivers that I had installed for when the Sonos Ones were individual speakers and started again. Once I did this, the volume control started working right away. Happy days!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy days!! that should not have effected i would think unless one of them was the volume end point. glad you were able to resolve it.
