How do I contact Control4 to ask for a feature request in Composer? Either a "replace queue" conditional when selecting a new playlist, OR a "clear cue" stand alone command sent before selecting the new playlist. From other 3rd party control forums... it seems both of these methods are possible. I think I have a much better shot of getting C4 to help than I do of getting Sonos to change the default behavior.

Sending STOP first doesnt fix it either. Such a HORRIBLE implementation. Who would want to "mix-in" songs as the default option???? I can see it as a feature... but not the default.

Just trying to have some simple buttons to switch between different playlists. My setup is: Sonos Connect setup to pull playlists from google play music. Distributed to ceiling speakers in various rooms throughout house via control4 audio switch. I have 1 custom button in the master bath (for example), that then has 2 options (his and hers playlists). If I MANUALLY clear the queue, and start fresh with one or the other... works fine. If I run hers, but then turn the room off, then come back and turn mine on... It just mixes some of my music into the queue along w hers? What am I doing wrong? I dont see a way to programmatically clear the queue on the Sonos first. Is that even possible? Seems like when I select a sonos playlist it should overwrite the queue? When you do it in the app though, it does give u a "this will clear the current queue" popup. Is that why it doesn't work?

Related but different... I am working on a sort of "roundabout" wake up function for my wife. The general idea is to tie to a certain light in the bathroom. When it's on, I want it to start a playlist on a Sonos connect (from google play). I have the programming done in CHE to trigger the sonos favorite (her playlist), and it also sets the ceiling speakers to the sonos connect 1 input. However, I cant figure out how to make it shuffle by default? Is there a way to do this programatically? Secondarily... once I upgrade to OS3, will I be able to make a custom button in the app on our phones that would do this instead of tying to a light? We dont have a touchpad. Thanks,

Thanks.

Maybe i am blind or missing it? But, can i not do this in Composer HE? i.e. Rename "Audio Output 1" to "Living Room?"

If u stream to any device (like a sonos device, or even any of their OWN devices like alexa, dots, etc.) the button to access the queue goes away. Its a known issue and has been for months. I have been going around in circles w their customer service team for weeks.

Why is it taking so long for Control4 to support this? I switched my entire family from Google Play over to Amazon Music just because of the native C4 support. However, the Amazon Music system is lacking the most BASIC of features. When streaming to any device, you can no longer access your music queue (as an example). So, I want to switch back to google, but then i lose the native support in the c4 app. Why does there always have to be a trade off to EVERYTHING??? So frustrating!
