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.
