On my echo speaker, I have alexa enabled with two accounts, each with it’s own spotify. I can use voice commands to play from the appropraite person’s spotify - for example, “play artist on xxx’s spotify”.  I can also ask it to switch accounts. 

I have my alexa voice controller activate on my Sonos One. However it won’t switch accounts, nor will it play from any spotify other than the one assocaited with the alexa account which was used  for the voice controller. 

Is there a way to replicae the funcionality of my echo speaker on my Sonos One?

The relationship between your Sonos and Alexa account must be 1:1, however if you want to use different Spotify accounts please follow these steps to create a Music Service for each Spotify Account:

(You may need to remove the Spotify App temporarily to add multiple Spotify accounts.)

I don’t believe that it is possible to switch accounts via voice command though, only via the Sonos App

Thanks ​@UKMedia. I’m keen on switching with a voice command. Could I have one spotify using sonos voice command, and onther one on alexa voice command? Would that work?

My understanding is that that would work, although I haven't tested it. I would suggest an Alexa device with a different trigger word than Sonos.
