hi. i am using sonos one. is there a way to play radio (from tunein) and turn on hue lights...in one-single alexa voice command ?

every morning, i will turn on my radio and switch on my kitchen lighting. by doing these, i need to tell alexa to 1) alexa switch on my kitchen lights. 2) alexa play radio.

is there a lazier method to link both commands up? haha. i understand that i cant add sonos one audio to "routine"...

Hi

Not at the moment but if you live in the US you could try Alexa's Follow-up feature:

Open Alexa App>Settings
Choose the Sonos One
Scroll down and enable Follow-Up mode

These will mean that you don't need to say the trigger word on the second command.
