Are you able to access your media when you enter \\192.168.1.66 in the file explorer address bar? Note I am assuming that is the IP address of the NAS (not the Sonus Connect).
As far as I can tell, Sonos uses SMB 1.0 to connect to NAS. That should be working, since the Pro-4 supports SMB 1.0 (in fact it's the only SMB 1.0 protocol it uses).
Based on a quick read of the Sonos forum you need to
(a) Set the Pro-4 share to default access of read/write
(b) set the Pro-4 share to allow guest access
Then mount the share on the Sonos using \\nas-ip-address\sharename (using the real IP address of the NAS).
Is that what you did?
