Note from David about Speakers vs Soundbar:

There are two software versions for the Speakers and Soundbars. They are different:

Speakers and non-SoundPlus Soundbars: Current version 3117.1 / 181R

Does not have the UPnP DMR capability (which includes AVTransport).

Uses “SetUrlPlayback” for URL play.

SoundPlus (Sound+) Soundbars (i.e., HS-MS650): Current version 1146.4 / 196R

Supports the UPnP DMR capability (which includes AVTransport).

Does not have the SetUrlPlayback command.
