I’m having some difficulties making the Text to Speech(TTS) to work, everything else is working fine, ocationoly i get: “device not ready.” but, I usually reload my browser (F5) and It works fine. Now I did made a Scene and went to the Advanced Tab and selected my Sonos and and found the Say Option and filled it out and then when I save my work and test it, it does not say anything. If I play music or watch TV, it silents it for a wile them brings it back to what it was doing. Now I did looked where I placed my files and made sure and still nothing. I did try coding it in Luup and still does the same thing. Any help would be great.
As lolodomo indicated, check to make sure that the Sonos_Silence.mp3 is loaded to proper landing zone. One of the issues I had was I followed the Wiki and it linked me to files for Beta2-153. I had the same issue as you and found that there was in fact a 153(non beta) with newer files. I loaded those, did a reload on Vera and things were much improved. I believe the link to the newer 153 is just below the official thread. Another tip (as indicated on the Wiki) is to download the archive file, un-archive then load to Vera.

The beta 2 version is the released version.
The version in trunk is the version in development.
There is no reason I can explain you got a different behaviour with TTS between the beta 2 and the current dev version.

I uploaded the files you gave me but now my sonos plugin is not working. Do I need to delete the files in my Micasaverde or do i just upload them again. Ill try the previous one that is not in beta and see that works.

What do you mean with “not working” ? What does not work exactly ? Do you have error messages in logs ?
I am sorry but I can do nothing when I read someone just writing “it does not work”.
Just installed Beta 3 and no problem controlling my one Zone through my Connect (Office has only one zone)
When i test TTS under the plugin, player tab I can enter text and the current playing song pauses and TTS is played then the song starts playing again.
I tried to do a say command from Luup from the example on the Sonos plugin page:
luup.call_action(“urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:Sonos1”, “Say”,
{Text=“The sun shines outside”, Language=“en”},
666)
also from a scene adding the Sonos and using say from there…
I know in the past the silence file was an issue… But not now.
Like I said everything works … play vol. stop pause… Song artwork etc!
