Connect Sonos play 1 to Alexa dot using a cable
Does anyone know if you can connect an Alexa dot using the eithernet jack on the Sonos play 1

No. The ethernet jack on a PLAY:1 doesn't function as an ethernet extender.
The Alexa Dot, however, is a wireless device. You shouldn't need to connect it with an ethernet cable.
Oh. Do you mean that you want the sound output on the Dot, which is a headphone jack (3.5mm) to connect to the PLAY:1? Won't work. The ethernet port on a PLAY:1 is an ethernet port, not a audio input.

No, the dot can control the Sonos wirelessly, but it doesn't "play music" to the Sonos. Minor difference.
