Hi I’m using a Symfonisk. I have a running group with 3 Sonos Speakers if I use the Symfonisk when the speakers are grouped it turns the volume up and down only for one speaker. If I put all speakers in the flow they even change the volume different. Is there a way to solve this. I m missing the value group volume.
Thx

I’d suggest looking into Sonos node api docker container…

Do you have a main speaker on which the volume is changed? Or can it be any speaker from the group?

I get the best result by adjusting the volume of the other Sonos in the **same** group to the changed Sonos with a delay from 1 to 3 seconds.
The easiest way \> You need for each speaker one Flow like this:
MY FLOW S1
_When_
Volume S1 changend
_And_
Logic-Card with cointained a + (to make sure that the speaker is in a group)
_Then_
Deaktivate MY FLOW S2
Deaktivate MY FLOW S3
Deaktivate MY FLOW S4
Change Volume S2 to Volume S1 delay 1 seconds
Change Volume S3 to Volume S1 delay 1 seconds
Change Volume S4 to Volume S1 delay 1 seconds
Activate MY FLOW S2 delay 2 seconds
Activate MY FLOW S3 delay 2 seconds
Activate MY FLOW S4 delay 3 seconds
MY FLOW S2
_When_
Volume S2 changend
_And_
Logic-Card with cointained a + (to make sure that the speaker is in a group)
_Then_
Deaktivate MY FLOW S1
Deaktivate MY FLOW S3
Deaktivate MY FLOW S4
Change Volume S1 to Volume S2 delay 1 seconds
Change Volume S3 to Volume S2 delay 1 seconds
Change Volume S4 to Volume S2 delay 1 seconds
Activate MY FLOW S1 delay 2 seconds
Activate MY FLOW S3 delay 2 seconds
Activate MY FLOW S4 delay 3 seconds
and so on for the other speakers. You need activation/deactivation otherwise the Flows run into a loop.

_Off Topic_ There is missing a Card like _Change Volume of a Group_. If you have a Sonos-Group and you change the volume of one speaker in the group the others in the group will not change. The only exception: Speakers as a stereo pair. This is since i have Sonos.

I just use the command change relative volume for each speaker. I’m on 5.0 RC 48 Sonos Version is 5.0.14.

I just tested this with some other speakers and the volume is exactly the same on all speakers after turning the relative volume up for all of them without a delay. Cannot test this with 3 single speakers nor with Symfonisk speakers because most of my speakers are grouped alr.

I know it might be useless but you could also send Athom a feature request to add a volume card for groups.

Dunno when u added the speakers for the last time but with an update from the Sonos app a while ago it was needed to re-add the speakers. Maybe try that also if u didn’t alr?

No, you have to use [this](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc8j_GfID4adV4w5ogNtIX1-AqVWrkgIo3bOjkoNtqlHMM0xw/viewform) form.

Tested it with 1 Beam, 1 Sub, 1-Stereo-Pair (2 Devices) and 3 Single-Devices in one Group. Changing the Volume on one Device only the Volume of this Device is changed and all others in the Group not.
Running Homey with 5.0.0-rc.48 and Sonos-Athom-App 6.0.2-Beta. All Sonos-Devices newest Generation and on Sonos-V2.
@Rocodamelshekima Hmm, is there a difference betwenn _VolumeUP_ and _ReltiveVolumeUP_? Only using _VolumeUP (Set Volume to)_.

Ow sorry. I tested with changing the relative volume on all speakers in a flow. The TS said that there was different volumes on the speakers when he does that.
Both will have the same volume after running the flow over and over again.

I don’t have a card like that. Using 5.0.14
Correction: am not using the Sonos app at all, just installed it for testing this very issue. Using the node api thingie and some Sonos php files on my Synology because I have a mix of S1 and S2 speakers. Homey’s Sonos apps can’t/won’t handle that.
