  • Change made to allow devices to belong to only one speaker group at a time is being reversed.
  • Legal decision invalidated two patents Sonos claimed were infringed, prompting this reversal.
  • Devices will again be able to belong to multiple speaker groups without error.
  • Update rolling out immediately on Android and soon on iOS.
