ptmullett Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Hello, Recently installed C4 in my house. I have a Sonos ARC in my master bedroom which integrates nicely into the system. One issue is that the Volume control for the Master Bedroom (ie Sonos ARC) is a simple plus/minus GUI vs a volume slider in all the other rooms. My installer told me that I could not change that because of the Sonos Driver. Has anyone had experience with this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Been ages since I installed a Sonos speaker or Amp (as in not Connect feeding RCA), but not having a slider will certainly be a driver not having discrete volume setting (which may well be a limitation of the API Sonos has).

dinom Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 My Sonos speakers have a volume slider in the C4 interface. But I don’t have an ARC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekki70 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 is it possible your using the audio volume endpoint for the tv and not sonos, and using ir driver and not ip? check your video endpoints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will need to make sure that the endorsed sonos driver is installed and is the endpoint for the room. An easy fix let me know if you need some help.

I remember the installer told me they had to use TV volume control, if I wanted a GUI of volume on the TV for the ARC. I am running optical for the sonos ARC and not HDMI given I have run out of HDMI inputs on my TV. My guess is I can't have both an on screen Volume GUI and also have the volume slider feature Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
