I have two Sonos speakers on my c7 hub. Two days ago i noticed they are not speaking usual message. I ran t by e sonos app, it found both s po eakers, but still no luck.any ideas appreciated.
I could really use some help her guys. I'm 82 and this stuff isn't as easy as it used to be. I shut down my hub thru the diagnostic tool, pulled power, waited 2 minutes and powered it back up. Still no audio coming out to either my Sonos speakers or Google Mini speakers. Could this be a hardware failure in my C7?
Platform 2.3.6.146. I know it's old, but I have read not to fix things that aren't broken.
Any suggestions?
I ran Sonos Integration] and it found my two speakers.
I ran Chromecast and it finds none of my Google Minis.
Are you opposed to updating the hub firmware?
That’s the first thing I’d suggest, since it appears as though you’re no longer in this situation:
I guess I'll have to give that a try. Perhaps in one of the new versions they shut down speaking. I'm just always afraid if I upgrade and it doesn't go well I'll be up a creek without a paddle.
If you mean you’re concerned that hub firmware versions beyond the one you’re currently running will no longer support text-to-speech notifications, then don’t be.
Ok my c7 is now on platform 2.4.4.133. Still no voice announcements. Anybody have an idea what is causing this.
Have you tried sending a test notification from one of the Sonos speakers’ device page in the Hubitat UI? Or from one of your Google home speakers?
I get a balloon "command sent" but no sound.
Anything in the device events or logs pages when you do that?
Yes, in logs it says host unreachable, no route to host
Maybe the Sonos Speaker changed IP addresses?
Maybe. How would i fix tha?
I don't have Sonos, so I don't know how you check the IP address in the app. Nor do I know what services your DHCP addresses. One of those should help you determine the current IP addresses. Then, change the IP address on the Hubitat Sonos devices.
That does seem plausible.
I’ve never tried it, but there is this command in the Sonos device page’s settings:
Perhaps confirming the device’s current IP address from your router’s UI and then entering it here could help.
I would have thought that rediscovering the Sonos devices would work, if the addresses did in fact change. So I’m not sure if this will make a difference, but it might be worth a try.
