Remove to reverse option to Cast to Sonos once activated

General Discussions

So I gave Plex permission to use the new Sonos casting feature from the Plex iOS app.

Problem is it lists ALL Sonos units I have on my Sonos account (eg including my parents units in different countries) and not just those on my network.

So basically, how do I now remove this option to Cast to Sonos once it has been activated and is listing all my Sonos units?

Currently it will show all speakers that are associated with your account. We’re investigating ways to make it more friendly on the local network.

Thanks John,

While waiting for this, surely there is a way to disable or reverse it in the meantime? I only signed up for it to see how it worked but now I’m stuck browsing through 30 items trying to find my Chromecast or Apple TV.

I don’t even wish to cast to Sonos anymore, just want to remove all Sonos units and only see my active Plex video players in the drop down cast menu. Hence my desire to simply remove the option & go back to the stage where the Plex cast box contained a ‘Connect Sonos to cast’ option for Plex Pass users.

We’re working on adding an option to unlink your Sonos account from plex.tv, but in the meantime you can do this as a workaround:

  1. Find your Plex token https://support.plex.tv/articles/204059436-finding-an-authentication-token-x-plex-token/
  2. In your browser, and using your own token, go to the following address: https://sonos.plex.tv/unlink?X-Plex-Token=YOURTOKEN

That did the trick! Many thanks for helping out on this.

Hopefully, Plex can try improve this feature so that only Sonos players on the current network are picked up .
