Should I set up my new Sonos One speakers first with Home.app or first with Sonos.app?

Set up your device with the Sonos app. Then add it to Homekit within the Sonos app itself via services and voice setting.

Before receiving the helpful reply of AZDreamer, I tried to set up the speakers with Home.app, but was not able to. I then set them up with the Sonos.app. Then browsing around in the Sonos.app, I discovered the Airplay connection. Now I have the two speakers showing up in the sound panel of System preferences and dropping down from the menu bar of my Mac. With this I can play sound from my Mac on the two speakers, but then I don't hear it on my Mac. I wonder if I can set up a group including the Mac AND the two speakers, and if I do this on Home.app or Sonos.app?
