It's not working at all with the new june 24 update on sonos. Why this company making people's lives so hard?

[@TechWithTonyAustralia]

Yes the new app certainly has created a few problems! I have had issues with playing Spotify from within the Sonos app, but so far no problems playing direct from Spotify. Try powering off all of your Sonos devices and also go to the Sonos app and make sure the software is up to date, then try again. It should work…. hopefully.

Because they're greedy assholes!

Can you do this on the Sonos play one

[@TechWithTonyAustralia]

@@Furry__ yes absolutely, this should work well with the Play 1 and I’ve not had an issue with this feature, even after the new app was launched. If it isn’t working make sure both the Sonos app and the Play 1’s software is up to date.
Keep in mind the Play 1 and the ‘One’ are different. Both will work with Spotify speaker connect, but the ‘One’ is compatible with Apple AirPlay where the Play 1 isn’t.

It stopped working. Now the option of where to play it from is no longer there

[@TechWithTonyAustralia]

This feature wasn't really effected by the recent Sonos app update so it may be something else. To fix, use the Sonos app and check you have the latest software and also make sure 'Update Automatically' is on. If this doesn't solve the problem, try switching off (remove the power) from all of your Sonos devices, then also power down your internet and any Wi-Fi access points. It makes no difference which order you switch everything off - but switch back on in this order: 1) Modem on and wiat for it to be back online. 2) Power on any Wi-Fi access points and wait for them to be working normally. 3) If you have any Sonos devices connected by ethernet cable, switch these on first and wait for them to be working. 4) Switch on all remoning Sonos devices.
You can then try to play music direct from your Spotify app - hopefully it is working again :)
