Playing Local Music Library on Sonos through Alexa

It does not currently, correct? If not, that’s a pretty big fail. On first blush, I can’t figure out how to do it. Looks like it has to be one of Amazon’s supported music services. Please someone tell me I’m wrong...

Drat. Where on your roadmap is it planned?

Disappointing! I have been waiting for Alexa integration and am excited to use it. I have it up and running well with Amazon Music and SiriusXM but am very disappointed that it cannot access the music library, Sonos playlists, etc.

I'd go as far as to say totally misleading. I don't have not want to sign up to a streaming service to use voice control. Sonos should have made this clear you need a streaming service to use it. I dot. What to be forced into renting music

Alexa doesn't have access to your local music library.

What?! That's crazy... I've spent years building a library of my own music... and was so looking forward to having the alexa integration. But it won't play anything from my local library? That's just NOT ok! Once Alexa figures out teh commend is for Sonos, it gets transferred to the Sonos cloud for processing... and the Sonos cloud has access to my library. So it should work.

I'm one of those weirdos who doesn't like to pay the monthly fees to listen to the music I like... I just buy the music I like. Having the Alexa-Sonos integration only work with [a handful] of streaming services really cripples the integration.

Are there plans to allow Alexa commands that play from my music library?

No local library access makes this pretty much useless. And that's before I start on not having access to Apple Music. So close but, alas no cigar.

Looks like we have to rent music

Totally agree. I don't use any music streaming services and have a great personal music library. I want to play that.
Update needed asap please Sonos.

I don't have not want to sign up to a streaming service to use voice control. Sonos should have made this clear you need a streaming service to use it.
You're not being forced to do anything different than you did yesterday. You're reversing the requirement in your statements.

Today, if you want to use voice control to initiate the playing of music, you will need to have a streaming service.

And as Ryan stated, you do get *some* benefit with the "basic controls"

Also, any Alexa device on your account can use basic controls, such as play, pause, volume, and skip, on your Sonos players. This works for all services and music on Sonos, started through the Sonos app.
