Sonos speaker is trying to login?!

Hi there!

Not really a configuration issue, but i’m wondering how it’s even possible that my Sonos Speaker (just one), is trying to login? Que?!

How is that even possible?

I think this has been around for some time - there are several threads about it. I don’t think it’s the Sonos speaker as such - with my system it was the Wireless Sensor Tag controller and others have had it with Apple devices. HA seems to pick an IP address at random and generate phantom logins. It’s a “feature”

I did eventually get rid of it by accident when I removed the device entirely for a few weeks - when I reinstalled it the problem had gone away.

That is wrong.
The IP comes from the request itself.

I’m getting this on one particular Sonos speaker now, as well.

Is there anything to be done?
