Did you set up Spotify Connect as in https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player#spotify-connect? It should list all the available devices as the official Spotify app

I set it up like that. I'm also able to see all the other Spotify Clients but I can't see my two Sonos devices in the list, while they show up in the other clients.

What happens if you connect to the sonos device from the official client. Does the same device show up in spotify_player if you call SwitchDevice?

The sonos speaker shows up in the cli Playback info with it's name when the playback is started elsewhere. But not in the Device list itself.

Well after doing some research, look like Spotify APIs don't provide support for sonos https://github.com/spotify/web-api/issues/1337 and it is common problem for many people. Because of that, there is nothing I can do from spotify_player side.
