Cast to Sonos from PI Theater

[TomShuckle 2]

I've been able to cast to my sonos speakers using the Sonos add-in from my web-client.  

I've just installed the RPI 5 Theater and there's no cast button in the player.  Is this a limitation of the Theater, or the Pi?  Or is it something I need to enable?

Hi, if you switch the display mode setting in the app to something other than TV, then you'll get the cast icon back in the upper right.

Amazing!  Thank you!

Although I do like the TV view better.  But for my purposes, this will work just fine.

For anyone else, in theater if you switch from TV to either Desktop or Mobile/Tablet you can set the cast to whatever device, then you can switch back to TV and it will continue casting to that device.

I've setup a pi with a small touchscreen so I can play my Emby music through my Sonos speakers.
