Not displaying covers of Sonos Radio Stations (while others work)

Open fantaaaaaa opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

I have been experiencing that the mini-media-player will not show covers from Sonos Radio Stations while it will show other covers (like streamed AirPlay) and while the sonos app is showing the coverart correctly.

Here is my Config of the card - sorry for the screenshots but i couldnt paste the code properly.

the first player is playing a Sonos Radio Station and not showing covers. the second player is playing an AirPlay stream from the Music.app on the Macbook Pro and is showing covers. Bildschirmfoto 2020-08-24 um 00 27 44

It is weird that covers of Sonos own radio will not show while airplay even provides the cover properly?

is anybody experiencing the same issue? i have already updated to the currently latest version and restarted home assistant.

Are you sure there Is artwork available from those radio stations?

Go to you home assistant web interface & /developer-tools/state and look for the artwork attribute in the sonos player when playing from a radio station.

Also, does it display artwork in the default media-control card?

I've also got Sonos and while the Sonos app includes the artwork it doesn't show up under the device.

Not sure if this is something to do with the Sonos integration or Sonos itself, but I don't think this is an issue with this platform.

Could be wrong, but see attached images for reference. image
