Plexamp Players List - many random Sonos devices

I noticed today when selecting which Player to play through on Plexamp that there were several random Sonos devices showing up on the list. It started with a few simple ones such as “Kitchen +1” and “Office” but then grew to include others such as Dining Room, TV Room, Bedroom, Batcave, Basement, Sonos Roam, etc. It seems a pretty unrealistic list for actual devices in an apartment complex if somehow I am picking up names of devices in a neighbor’s home.
They appear on 3 different of my devices. The list will sometimes disappear or not be present until I click the refresh button on the Select Player list.
These devices are also definitely not on my wifi network.

Is this some kind of bug with 4.5.3 or the latest server version, perhaps populating default names of Sonos devices?
Or am I on my own here? I can’t think of why these would show up on my list if they were actual physically present devices if they are not on my local network.

We’re looking into it.

Appreciate it! Hopefully it’s a real thing and I am not going crazy!

It also may be worth mentioning here that I still see “regular” Plex instances appear on the Player list (Plex for Windows and the web client). They appear but do not work (“Cannot connect to remote player”). I think I mentioned this before…

Can confirm the phantom Sonos devices have vanished.
