Sonos as Player for PLEX

Hi all,
any idea how to use a Sonos soundbar as player for the Plex app?
. Plex server installed on a QNAP
. music collection on the same QNAP
. Tidal used for streaming
. Tidal app works with Sonos
. Sonos app uses Tidal and is able to search in my music collection
. Plex recognizes the QNAP, also my Tidal account
but unfortunately Plex is unable to use my Sonos soundbar as player.
I just tried Roon as alternative and it works - no problem with Sonos.
Looking forward to hear from the experts.
Best,
Christian

You have to use the Sonos app and access your Plex music from that app.

From the app: Browse >> Plex and your music should show up.

Thanks darcilicious,
I know, but the Sonos app is awful and if this is the only way I would not need Plex - what would ne the benefit. In contrast the Roon app offers one platform for local music and music from Tidal. Letā€˜s see - I am not very convinced.

Well, sorry to say, but what you want is not currently supported by Plex.

Thank you for the short and clear answer!

+1 would be great to cast /fling from the Plex App to my Sonos speakers. I can do this from lots of other apps , even really old free ones like Windows Media Player. I really like the Plex interface so would be good to do everything within Plex rather than having to switch apps.

I just added Plex as a music service in SONOS but when I open the service I see lists of all of the Plex stuff but ā€œMy Musicā€ isn’t there. I can find it on the Plex server but not in SONOS. You folks are already obviously way ahead of me but could you take pity and help?
