Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Exact Sonos Move 2. Known supported speakers on current software, same household; Bluetooth grouping changes playback control and limits app functions. Bluetooth source context; no reset or saved-pairing deletion is prescribed.
Connection scope: Bluetooth. Symptom: Stereo or party speaker linking isn’t working.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at scope. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.

Look for: Choose only what you can confirm.
- If Yes, confirmed → Confirm primary Bluetooth playback
- If No → Keep the last observation for support
- If I do not know / cannot check → Confirm the unknown detail first
