ORBI AC3000 and SONOS

I have  ORBI system with one router and 3 satellites. The router is acting as AP, and the satellites are not connected by cable but thru 5Ghz. 

 

Everything works fine. 

 

However I have a fairly large SONOS installation, and I would like to have some on speakers connected to the Satellites. This is not possible, I can only connect to one satellite or to the router, not 2 satellites or the router and one satellite then the network crash, and the satellites go into Magenta mode.

 

SONOS creates its own network when one unit is connected by cable by default.  This network does ORBI sees as a wired backbone, and then there is a lot network traffic and net stops to work.

 

Any solutions or Firmware update for this issue?
