Two or three is usually a safe chain length. The real limit is the radius from the root node. Beyond seven hops the STP will run into trouble.
3rd party devices plugged into Sonos Ethernet ports work fine for wired or SonosNet connected Sonos devices (not WiFi) -- as long as the 3rd party device is not a bandwidth hog. I (carefully) use this routinely when proper wiring is not practical. But, don't expect Sonos Support to bail you out if this scheme gets you into trouble.
