@danieldurrans I just tried it and it works very good, i just have one question.
For sonos system is it possible to control the volume of all grouped speakers?
ZHA - Ikea Symfonisk sound controller GEN2 (the square one) with dot-button support for new firmware
Unfortunately I canāt answer that question. I donāt use my Sonos speakers in groups (my use-case is to control a single speaker in the kitchen). Having read a few other threads I understand it may be necessary to extend the code of the blueprint to determine if the speaker is part of a group and then iterate through the group to control the volume. This isnāt something I am able to test.
has anyone had issues with the blueprint not finding any matching devices?
The device is added via zigbee2mqtt. SYMFONISK sound remote gen2
As the title says ZHA I would assume you should have issues.
You need to find a blueprint for Z2M or just create an automation yourself.

thanks that makes sense
Hi, Iāve been trying to update my remote from 0x00010012 to 0x01000035, but getting nowhere. Iāve updated some other Ikea remotes (with some difficulty) before, but this one seems to be completely refusing. The buttons besides the dots work, but none of the steps in the linked ZHA OTA guide work. The service call goes through (only if Iām pressing buttons on the remote while calling), but alas, no update seems to start.
Also, checking the current version via the cluster gives me āNoneā:
Any ideas?
Why do you need to update it?
I only see updates as a risk of something failing.
Because, as the OP mentioned, updating the firmware is necessary to get the dot buttons to work with ZHA (or at least, to get them to work with this blueprint)
They work fine for me.
I have not updated my remote
Edit:
I see that mine already have the update.
0x01000035
Well dang. Maybe Iāll try another method of updatingā¦ Z2M perhaps?
If it helps anybody, I edited this blueprint to suit my situation of having a separate amplifier/receiver and media player. I only use my Denon AVR as an amp, none of the media funtions are used as I play media using my Nvidia Shield TV Pro. As such, Iāve split out the volume and media controls since the shield was making the amp change volume in bizarre ways.

(realised that Iād messed up, edited my post with the latest revision)
After the firmware updates, my button now shows this:
Firmware: 0x01000035
And the 1-dot and 2-dot buttons no longer do anything. They used to, but not anymore. Both of mine are like this.
A good reason to stop updating stuff that donāt need updates.
I know one of mine had this when I bought it, I just removed it and paired it again a few times and it just started working.
I didnāt remove mine, but I did reconfigure and readd it a few times. Same issue.
Are you saying that completely removing the button and re-adding it will fix the 1- and 2-dot button issue?
My battery is also showing 200% on both devices. Pretty sure thatās also wrong.
In terms of firmware updates, I just wanted the messages to go away. But also, I donāt know exactly what needs updating. Maybe itās a security fix, maybe it reduces battery usage. But in this case, maybe it breaks things.
I just looked at mine and it also has Firmware: 0x01000035 but mine has not updated.
Not sure how yours could have an older version, I bought mine several months ago.
But yes remove them completely and factory reset the remotes.
I donāt think you need to ever worry about security fixes for ZigBee devices. Battery optimization is possible, but I wouldnāt risk it.
I canāt seem to figure out a way to factory reset my buttons. I can re-auth them with 4 clicks, but not factory reset.
Either way, removing the button from Home Assistant and re-adding fixed the problem! I didnāt have to do it more than once either
