User management failed error in Homekit

I'm getting a 'User management failed' error when trying to add my Sonos speakers to Homekit. What does it mean and how do I solve it? I already updated everything, reset everything, tried connecting to 2,4 Ghz etc. Nothing works.

iPhone X, iOS 16

HomeKit issues with iOS and iPadOS 18.2 Started having issues today with HomeKit using my iPhone and iPad. Tried upgrading one version to 18.2 with no change. Yale locks are no longer recognized and Eve outlets are intermittent on being recognized and automations are not working with the Eve outlets. I can’t even delete the automations so I can add them in new. I select “delete automation” but it’s still there when I go back.

Can no longer control Sonos from my MacBook Pro The Sonos app on my MacBook Pro (Ventura 13.0.1) no longer works properly to control my in house Sonos speaker system. After years of controlling from my Macs, I now can't operate the system. The bad performing Sonos app says a software update is needed, but when I attempt that I get many repeats of Error - Try Again Later. After many attempts I went to the tried and true procedure of uninstalling the app, with the intent of re-installing it. Surprise! The App Store no longer carries the Sonos app for Macs. So, I can't re-install the app I just dumped. What's up? Has Apple gotten out ahead of Sonos with its latest macOS update? And so also removed the app from the App Store because it won't work? Or is there some other fix for this that I haven't found yet? (I can easily control my Sonos system as before with all of my iOS devices)
