Are you certain they are both MA provided entities? Can those exact same two speakers be joined in the MA UI?

[JDogg016]

Yes. I confirmed the correct naming convention (as, admittedly, it can get confusing). The funny thing is I can run an action to 'unjoin' them from one another.

When I join the two Speakers in the Sonos App I can confirm the speakers join in MA (in about 30 seconds). When I join the speakers in MA, they show as joined in the Sonos App about 30 seconds later.

Also, if they are previously joined (ie. through MA or the Sonos App), I receive the following message upon attempting to join them in Node-Red: Player Gym TV Speaker is already synced to another player on its own, you need to unsync it first before you can join other players to it."

The last error would seem to be correct if the player is already synced? Please review the HA log after trying the join action.

Also please format any code snippets so we can see that it isn’t a typo (edit your original post please)

[JDogg016]

Formatted the code snippet. Also, I assume you mean the HA Core log (under System)? After performing the action, there is nothing in the Log (maybe I need to turn on debug logging)? Also, there is nothing in the logbook for the devices at issue.

OK looks like I can recreate this. It will be looked into further soon.
