Homey, Sonos and Spotify

Sir_RaySir_Ray Member
in Questions & Help
I have recently bought a homey. It has firmware version 1.3.1 I have installed the Sonos and Spotify app. I cannot get the Sonos working. Homey sees 4 Sonos devices However, it sees all four of them as Play:1. Which is incorrect. I have 3 Play:1's and a Play Base. Two of the Play:1's are teamed with the Play Base. But I cannot start anything on any Sonos device. I also tried Spotify to start with music (spotify is logged in succesfully), but that comes back with a Red exclamation mark (!) and an error message: schemas-upnp-org

How can I get my Sonos to work and when it works, also get Spotify to work on the Sonos :)

    Not sure if the spotify connect beta app is > firmware 1.5.0 only but worth a shot.
    It will replace the Spotify for Sonos app once stable i think.

    Here should be a link saying "switch to beta":https://apps.athom.com/app/com.spotify

    The beta app cannot be installed on my current version (1.3.1). So I removed the spotify app completely. I've got my Sonos working now without the Spotify connection. I hope the 1.5 firmware will be released soon, so that I can use my Spotify with the Sonos.

    @Sir_Ray the app works from 1.5.0 and on. Love the new desktop-app possiblity. I don't own a sonos, but now I can use Homey to play music thru my PC. Just adding some speech flows and playlists and Homey sets the mood <span>:blush:</span> It's still in beta though it only reads playlists for now, no luck finding seperate tracks <span>:neutral:</span>

    Will the existing issues with playing music be fixed in 1.5?

    @MarcoWijk : I can not get the (beta) spotify app working with my desktop version of spotify. I see changes in my playlists in Music from Homey (v1.5.0), but not the possibility of play or stream to the PC. Is this already working??

    Got it working. Found out that you also have to add a spotify connect device.

    Hey Spotify Music is DRM protected, so you can directly playing Spotify Music on your PC from your Sonos. Here, you can use some converter to convert your Spotify Music for playing via Sonos. And I am going to suggest TuneFab Spotify Music Converter is an option.
