Spence will receive a cash severance of $1,875,000, per SEC filings. He will also get $7,500 per month and serve as a Sonos board advisor until June, and his unvested shares will vest.

If I was this bad at my job, I’d be shitcanned with no compensation. It’s pretty cool how we reward failure at the highest levels.

I haven’t had any luck with Music Assistant and my Sonos speakers. :(

I can add and select the speakers, select a track, everything seems to work right up to the point of actually playing music. It just stays paused and never switches to playing, no errors either.

That very much sounds like a network problem.

Are both hosts in the same subnet?

Yeah. I did see in the docs that there can be issues with Unifi networks, which I have, or with special setups but I did try a few of the settings it mentioned with no luck.

The only thing “special” with my network is I’m using a 10.x.x.x/8 subnet mask. The part that confuses me is the speakers are added with no issue.

Have a look at mDNS. It’s very often the issue here.

I am using the same network - that’s no problem

I have to ask the stupid question but are they in pause? What if you hit the button on top?

When they removed the ability to listen to my local music library from the app I started looking for alternatives. Seemingly perfectly timed for the app to shit itself.

I found BubbleUPnP. It can cast to all of my Sonos and my Google assistant speaker with zero issues and can play from Plex, my phone’s local library, and my NAS. Highly recommend. Three free version is usable but paid is only $7 and I no longer need the Sonos app.

If you use home assistant take a look at music assistant, it solves a lot of these issues for free.

I wasn’t able to get anything Google to work with Sonos. I originally had Spotify but cancelled when I couldn’t afford a bunch of subscriptions, and switched to my local stores music - which Google also refused to cast easily.
