Any way to obtain the current volume of a Sonos device?
Need Answer
Is there any way to obtain the current volume of a Sonos device? My Sonos devices don't fit into the "sensor" or "meter" pieces, so there seems to be no way to query them to find out what the current volume is (or the current URI).
The same question
No connection
Real-time notifications may not work
no, you are right, there is no way to get any values from sonos. Damn, how can you create a rule to match volume on all speakers.
Then again, I find the sonos integration only half done anyway. No TTS options, no easy way to group some speakers, no way to get a selection of even your favourite playlists. I thought to reason for the puzzle system was to avoid having to use http for these things.

Yes, more work is needed. In the morning sometimes I play a sound warning about rain, and after the sound is played I want to return to whatever the volume was on each speaker - but I have no way to know.
Do you know how to group speakers using HTTP? I've never got around to investigating it.

There's nothing like asking someone a question to prompt you to go and find the answer yourself :-)
I think I need to use the x-rincon: prefix for all except the coordinator (the Sonos Connect) and x-rincon-stream for the Connect (to take line-in input, which is what I use).
I'll try it tonight.

It works!! Also, the setting the URI of the Connect and Boost via the Zipabox devices (rather than via HTTP) also works.

Can you share your rules David? Thanks in advance.

well done david. Sorry but I would be no help in this matter. Did you even look at the Macronis app on android and debug it?
It would be great, if you have the time, if you could write up a info page or instructions on how you do alot of this with Sonos. I would love to be able to pause the music that is playing, play a notification over the whole sonos system, then restart the music again. Is this possible?

See this post:
https://community.zipato.com/topic/how-to-operate-sonos-connect-with-http-post
I've updated it at the end with my latest modifications.
As for pausing, playing a sound, and then resuming, I don't exactly do that, but I have a rule that interrupts the radio to play a rain notification. See attachment. I think it should be possible. I'm a bit hazy on the details of what I'm doing the rule, so I'll have to check when I get home. Queuing should be involved somewhere, I think...

There's a handy list of Sonos commands you can issue via HTTP (below).
What I don't know is if this alone is enough to do the pause/resume thing. I have my doubts. If you did this:
Set URI to Spotify playlist
Play
Pause
Add alert MP3 file URI to queue
Set current item to MP3 (using next/previous)
Play
Set current item back to Spotify playlist (using next/previous)
Play
would it save the context in your Spotify playlist, and resume from there? I kind of doubt it. But I don't know.

But here's something that I'm pretty sure *would* work. Suppose you have a Connect + 3 Play:1s like me. You group them and play Spotify or whatever. Then to, play your alert, you pause, ungroup, choose one of the units to "save" your position in Spotify - let's say the Connect, set the URI of the MP3 in one of the Play:1s, group the rest of the Play:1s together with the Play:1 with the MP3 URI, play the MP3, ungroup, regroup with the Connect, Play.
Yes, it will be a long rule :-). But it should work. If you only have speakers, and no Connect, you'll need to choose one speaker that doesn't play the alert.
What's your setup Adrian?

Oh and what's Macronis?
Oh and what's Macronis?
ohh, and thanks. Nice work on this.
Basically I only have 3 zones setup here. Play 1's and play 5. I also have chromecast, playfi and Amazon echo's. A mixed system, but basically used for testing and experimenting with different platforms. What I want to accomplish is a way to get the Doorbird notification to trigger a virtual sensor in zipato, that in turn activates a doorbell mps over the sonos network. This is what I would use for clients. If you could do this, I would be very appreciative. Do you have a Doorbird? Want one?

I don't have one, and I don't think I need one really. I live in a flat, so the motion sensor would be triggered by anyone using the stairwell. I don't miss deliveries because I have everything sent to the office (Spain's postmen never get up early enough to deliver a parcel when you're at home), and I'm extremely wary of any networked means of opening doors. I'll let other people play with that.
Does the Doorbird work with the Zipabox? Provided you can get a notification, the only problem is at the Sonos end.

I have posted a solution for volume problem and for playing notifications with resuming current track afterwards. It is basically 2 php scripts implemented on my local web server.

Adrian, I just stumbled on this post. Did you figure out how to do it? I can play MP3 sounds over the Sonos now, and I think I posted a how-to elsewhere on this forum. I can post the details here if you need them.
