I created the file mentioned on the minim radio page but when I created a Sonos Radio station with URL http://10.0.1.41:9790/minimstreamer/*/R2 the Sonos controller gave the error, unable to play, station not found.

......

so it doesn't seem to be able to find the entry in the BBC Radio.m3u file which is:

#EXTINF:-1,[*R2] BBC Radio 2
http://a.files.bbci.co.uk/media/live/man...o_two.m3u8

Did you do a MinimServer rescan after creating the new file? This is required to pick up any changes to playlists.

No, I had been restarting minimserver but didn't realise that a rescan was necessary.

I did a rescan and it started working!
