Troubleshooting
No sound coming from the Sonos Beam Gen 2.
Ensure the HDMI cable is securely connected to both the Beam and your TV's HDMI ARC/eARC port. Check your TV's audio output settings to ensure it's set to external speakers (HDMI ARC/eARC) and not internal TV speakers. Restart both your TV and the Beam.
Voice control is not responding.
Verify that your chosen voice assistant (e.g., Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant) is correctly set up and enabled in the Sonos app. Check that the microphone on your Beam is active (the microphone status light on the Beam should be on). Ensure your Beam has a stable internet connection.
Sound quality seems poor or surround effects are not noticeable.
Ensure the Beam is positioned correctly, not obstructed. For optimal sound, run the Trueplay tuning feature in the Sonos S2 app (requires an iOS device). Check that your TV's audio output is set to a format that supports Dolby Atmos if you're trying to achieve that experience, and verify the content you're playing also supports it.
