Unable to detect Sonos One speaker

[michaelelleby]

I am using the code at Git commit 1d14cdfdc87bab288c889b073ac2e222e9a8309d

> pip3 install soco

I have a Sonos One speaker running at 192.168.1.122 and it is reachable using https://github.com/pascalopitz/unoffical-sonos-controller-for-linux which is to say that I can reach it from my Linux pc. As seen in the log above mkchromecast does not detect it.

*sigh* I thought I had written up a bug about this, but it looks like I had only mentioned it in a comment; my apologies for that.

Long story short, I had disabled sonos support as part of an ongoing refactor that is not complete. The easy thing would be to check out the stable branch and use that instead of master. You could also use commit 07598801 if you wanted a more recent (thought still unstable, to be clear) version of the code.

I just filed #467 to track restoring Sonos support.

[michaelelleby]

Unfortunately neither stable branch nor commit 07598801 worked

Could you try `mkchromecast --debug --discover`? That will enable debug output while showing which devices are available.

[muammar]

mkchromecast --debug --discover

This does not work either:

muammar@pupa ~/git/mkchromecast [master]
