Can I adjust the volume of my Sonos speakers from the Lutron App?
You can set the starting volume when playing audio through a scene in the app, but you can’t directly adjust volume in the app. However, if you display the Pico remote control for audio on the home page of the Lutron App, you can use that to virtually press the Pico buttons and raise/lower the speaker or speaker group volume linked to that Pico. You can also play/pause, skip tracks, and cycle through your Sonos favorites.
