Hi,
I’m using a Remotec 8 button controller to start a Radio station on my Sonos, quite basic to be honest if I click on this button it works fine but there is a delay from about 7 or more seconds.
This is also with a Aqara button or Philips remote, or HomeyDash, so I don’t think it’s the Remotec remote itself, the Homey app is a little more responsive but to be honest also not as fast as the Sonos app itself, is this normal behavior?
I can only speak for myself, this is Normal behavior. I think it has to do with the stream. Some streams work fast, some slow. I also have the remotec. The flows for my bulbs work instantly
OK same behavior here, lights are directly Sonos has a delay, but seems to be normal then, thanks!
Hi, I know this has not directly to do with Homey, but because my wife hates the Sonos app 
and HomeyDash at the moment just to limited is, i had a look at Home Assistant and I have to say I’m impressed!
I’m not a developer and also no designer 
but creating this Sonos DashBoard took me about 30 minutes, very happy with it to be honest and the best the wife also 
to come back to the topic, Sonos acts now almost instantly just as fast as with the normal app so, I tried true Homey also again and still the delay’s are there so, and I don’t want to conclude anything here but maybe it’s the Homey Sonos app that’s causing the delays?
TV, HomeyDash, HA and DakBoard provides a nice dashboard in my office
Wel to be honest was quite easy, the amazing HomeyDash we off course already have ;-), I use Dakboard (https://dakboard.com/site) for my Calendar, the view you see on the TV can be created with the free version but for a couple of $/month you can created a quite good looking easy customizable dashboard that you can stream to a Google Hub with a Homey flow for instance, in my opinion Athom should have a look at this! 
because this is awesome! Missing only a good Sonos player here, so build a small dashboard in HA, ( https://www.home-assistant.io/getting-started/) was new to me and I’m not a developer, designer so was a bit worried for that, but to be honest the setup, configuration (click and play) was less than a hour work on a old Raspberry Pi 3 that I had laying around .
After that you just add the plugins for Sonos, Hue, Netatmo and… to HA (click and play) and some other plugins install the plugin HACS (https://hacs.xyz/) and everything is directly there, very impressed! after that I just build a small dashboard, mostly copy and paste to be honest
Put my old Raspberry Pi 2 on my desk TV, use chromium and just load the webpage’s from HomeyDash, HA and Dakboard and that’s it!

OK was not completely happy with my first version, was not theme friendly and missing more options, control center so this is the new version.
