I can make Roon connect to my Sonos with some issues:
- adding/removing speakers to group is slow
- adding too many speakers can cause complete failure of playback, or sometimes some speaker drops out of the group
- too many speakers (>4) seems to create the additional issues
Just to see, as I have Home Assistant running in my house, I added the Music Assistant add on and was surprised to see it can play to my Sonos easily, I can just click a checkbox for each additional Sonos speaker it adds them seamlessly and quickly. Why can this free open-source software seem to be able to control Sonos better than the premium software of Roon that I’m paying for in the same network infrastructure?
