Unfortunately this will not resolve the issue for these types devices as they require broadcast traffic for discovery. Broadcast filter is required to be enabled with airgroup in single vlan architecture.
SONOS is also the only device type if I remember right, specifically mentioned in the Aruba user guide as unsupported for airgroup. T.J.

We used mac address authentication in our case. I remember though having Aruba having to add in some code to the controller to allow it to work after Sonos had done an upgrade a couple years ago. I would hope by now that code is standard. It is tricky. I think the last step of peering you just skip. Once both are connected and see each other, they just peer. Meaning, don’t wait for the client to say success. Just start sending music, etc. Can’t remember the interface anymore because it’s been two years. I do remember it took us forever to get it working. This brings up another notion to me. It was once mentioned on one of the Educause lists that there really is no consequence to having one large flat subnet for your wifi. This goes against my normal Ethernet arp broadcasting instincts. But if this is true, it seems many of us would be better served with a sufficiently large layer 2 subnet and avoid layer 3 issues altogether. I am thinking of changing our wifi network to get rid of pooled vlans and just having one flat large vlan next summer. Seems like this would get rid of a number of issues for support. I would be curious about what others think. Wifi is not the same as Ethernet and I don’t think there are really any efficiencies by having multiple vlans in wifi unlike Ethernet which would reduce arp traffic, security, etc. Tim From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Community Group Listserv [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] On Behalf Of Entwistle, Bruce Sent: Wednesday, November 27, 2019 10:59 AM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Joining Sonos to a campus network I have been working on getting the first one of these connected to our wireless HP/Aruba network, by creating a new wireless LAN that meets the Sonos requirements.

Hi everyone, I was wondering how you’re managing actually joining Sonos products to your network. If you’ve had the pleasure of setting some of these up you may know why I need to ask. They don’t really like to individually be directed to join a network and they don’t really have a UI that just lets you log in a manage a units network connection. The best I’ve come up with is a kind of convoluted process that requires setting them up wired first and then directing the set you want to manage with a given (newly required) user account to join the network at the same time. I think there’s also differences between product lines. So far my experience is with Play:1’s, Play:5’s, and Connects which our process works with.
