I had soco set up to allow me to use a zwave button to do simple tasks.  

Button 1. Set volume to 75% on a particular zone then play rhapsody 80's rock on that zone.  
Button 2. Stop playing music on that same zone

made it so I didn't have to fire up a sonos app and do multiple button presses.

After Sonos 10.2 update all functionality is broken.

I've tried searching and am not getting a good sense as to whether this has been fixed.  Can someone let me know current state of soco.

I think I found something that said that soco can no longer start a music service stream (additional security, requiring authorization or something of the sort).  Is this true?  Maybe make the music service a favorite then have soco launch the favorite or something similar?

I'd really like to fix my simple set up.  I really liked the simplicity of the zwave button.

I was using a zwave script to launch a eventghost event that would launch a python script to start the stream.

In the past when sonos would do updates the functionality would break and I would have to sniff (wireshark) the exact syntax of the event and update the python script.  This no longer seems to work (or I haven't been able to get it to work at least).

Thanks,

I messed around with soco today and realized that on the computer that hosts soco/python I had not updated soco.  I did the "pip -install --update soco" to get it to 0.17 and everything seems to be working again.  I'm back in button heaven.
