Looks like I'm all S2 speakers. Upgraded and all announcements working as before.

Is the SonosController working with the Sonos S2 update?

Side note: i went to update my myriad of tablets... got all but a fire tablet to upgrade. Weird because my other one upgraded fine. Have Google play sideloaded... but wont' show me the S2 app in either google play or fire store.
If it go in from the Sonos website to the google play link, tells me app not compatible. ugh.

So far I have seen no issue but I ended up splitting my system and I can tell you that this will cause a bunch of issues.
a/ the PI will find all players irrespective whether S1 or S2. However all functions like grouping, pairing, linkgroups across the 2 systems won’t work
b/ the PI always assumed there is only one DB in the whole system, there will now by at least 2 and depending which player you chose to create the music DB from will be what you can select AND won’t work for the other players, I suspect same for the radio station DB .

So I did what they suggested, every S1 player, I did a factory reset, reset the S1 controller APP and created a new household, to which I added the S1 players. That new household required me the authorize all services again but after that S1 and S2 controllers played nice together (ships in the night).
One thing that I did run into is that the boost doesn't seem to be able to deal with 2 different households, or at least I couldn't figure out how. So now my S2 network (80% of my players) are now in the same config as they were pre-S2, including 2 boosts, but the S1 players are now running over my wifi-network.

I have an S1 house. Thinking about getting a Sonos Arc for a TV. The Arc is S2. It seems that the plug in can control both the S1 and S2 Sonos units, but a mixed household can't group across S1 and S2 and the user needs to use different apps for control. Is there any other downside to a mixed household? If the plug in can control both S1 and S2 units, wouldn't the plug in be able to do its own grouping by controlling selected S1 and S2 Sonos units?

The HS4 version of the PI (to be released soon), does take care of households, which doesn't mean you have extra features, it just prevents you from trying to do things that won't work anyway, such as groupings across households.

When they are in another household, by design they know nothing about the other household or at least they try to totally ignore other households. The HS3 version of the PI ignores households but that doesn't mean you can tell a player to group with a player from another household .... which it doesn't know anything about.
