I've noticed in my logs that my Sonos likes to report it's current state and volume level even though it is not being used. Is this normal? I would assume that Sonos would just do nothing unless something triggers it.
Screenshot attached.
Mine has done this since day one (probably an internal poll of some kind by the driver). A bit annoying but not really a problem. You can safely ignore the messages.

Sonos seems to generate a good bit of log traffic even when not playing. Not sure whether this corresponds to a significant amount of network traffic or not.

BTW - Despite what the log entries would lead you to think, none of my Sonos are playing.
@clindst, @Eric.C.Miller, @stephack I wonder if turning off the logging (both) on the speaker device page would work. I have mine turned off and I don't see any log entries for them at all. I am using the symfonisk speakers unless that doesn't make any difference.
Worth a try. I'm making the change now.
Yeah, it's done this forever now. I just ignore them.
Ditto for mine as well...I've often puzzled at their 'chattiness' but took the @corerootedxb approach as well!

I noticed the same chattiness from Sonos on ST so when I moved them to Hubitat I just turned off all logging I could and haven't noticed much except when one or more is playing.
Not a single Sonos event in the logs since I turned off the descriptionText logging yesterday.
