Sonos playbar sound settings

Bantje · August 2017

Hello,

If have made a flow where my playbar starts to play when I get home. The problem is that i can't get the sound settings correct. My TV sounds also goes through the playbar and when I look television the sound volume is low so I increase the volume. When I arrive at home the next day the sound is to loud.

Offcourse i can decrease the volume by hand but it would be nice if the volume was corrected by the flow.

Does anbody know what the best settings are?

Kind regards

Bjorn

Hi Bjorn,

These thread come in handy:
Use a Better logic variable to set the volume of your Playbar. Of course you can choose your own trigger (time, when you come home): https://forum.athom.com/discussion/3551/increase-volume-of-sonos-through-voice-command-logic-question

You can use this for increasing and decreasing volume (make another flow that increments by 0.02 and one that decrements the BL volume variable. Use this thread to fix a problem with incrementing and decrementing.

@Bantje this way you can set volume of the speaker you want to use and increase or decrease it after a delay time:

After installing Homey 1.5.0-rc2 I do have problems, the "Sonos related" flows are not working anymore

My problem is solved. It works like JPe mentioned above.
The only thing is that the scale is not working correct for me.
Normaly the sound volume in my phone is 20-25 percent from the bar.
In the flow I now set it at 5%. Weird but it works.
