SiriusXM SessionID communications error

Getting an error trying to load Sirius channel info in Sonos plugin. Was working fine until recently w/o any PW changes. Account & PW are correct. All other music feeds like Pandora are working fine. Also getting the following error in the log: versionCheck: Unable to reach the version server.

Anyone else seen this issue? Appreciate any direction as to how to resolve. Thanks!

Exact same issue. Been a few weeks now. Nothing different on my end except upgrade to Apple Big Sur - but I think Sonos error came afterward.

Error comes up whenever SONOR tries to read banner on what is playing on Sirius XM, It plays the stream, but it cannot control it anymore.

A bit more color - Sirius XM is unable to load the channel list. Comes up blank when trying to set up action group that changes stations.

Is there any fix or workaround for this? Haven't seen any responses...

I wish I could help but I am stuck here too. It looks to me like the authentication is not being done to the method in the Sonos API, which may have changed? But I really don't know and admit to be speculating as I just started to research the issue when it cropped up for me.

Here is test plugin (potential workaround). This may restore the SiriusXM functions for you and eliminate the error messages from the SiriusXM communication functions and the Plugin update error message.

This is only a test and is quite unsupported .... Your mileage may vary depending on what functions you are using within the plugin.

Enjoy ....

I am having the same problem. None of my Sonos action groups using SiriusXM work. The error message is SiriusXM SessionID communications error. Has anyone had luck with the test plugin by AutoMation01?

same problem here.

I changed my userID and password, thinking that may have had something to do with this problem. Verified login to website with new credentials. Still get the same SiriusXM SessionID communications error from Sonos plugin. I am unable to use any of my Sonos action groups.

I cannot figure out the SiriusXM SessionID communications error. I would like to phrase the issue differently. Is anyone able to play SiriusXM stations using an Indigo Action Group?

i am not able to start sirius xm from indigo actions (used to be able to). i can play other sources fine.

Sirius still not working, and i miss it with this plugin. i currently have the one from the dropbox link above.

I am having the same problem.

Sorry folks but it appears that SiriusXM made a change that has rendered the session authentication method in the modified plugin useless. The hacked plugin will no longer work.

I found the change that was preventing authentication and updated the plugin with a workaround. Here is a new version that is working as of 07/13/2021 - SXM_Bolt_On V1.2.A.

This is the dropbox link to the updated plugin:

Be sure to use the download function on the right side of the dropbox screen (under the three ... / more menu) as this will keep the plugin file format in tact to your download folder.

Once installed you will be able to tell if you are running the current version by this series of log messages:
