The line-in device is always hot so auto detect isn’t ideal. I just want to shout at a robot to do it for me when I want to hear that source instead of having to go into the app to make the selection.

Not possible at this time.

I don't think there is a voice command for this but you can set the option to auto play on a Room when the Line-In source is detected. Open the Sonos App>Settings>Room Settings>[Select your Connect]>Advanced Audio>Line-In>Autoplay Room. You can then include Grouped Rooms or not. How are you controlling the Line-In source?

I was hoping I could save the line-in selection as a fovorite to add to My SONOS so that it would show up in the SONOS drop down selection for favorites to work with a simple phrase with Amazon Alexa using IFTTT.
