Why doesnt my sonos 1 with alexa complete my verbal command to 'play Jazz on Pandora'?
Sonos 1 repeats: 'playing jazz on Pandora' BUT-- doesnt play the station at all, just silence. However, when I use sonos 1 via sonos app/room, it plays the pandora station I requested?
How can I fix this?

Maybe try removing the Sonos ‘Skill’ in the Amazon Alexa App, wait a few moments and then re-add the ‘Skill’, consent to the Amazon/Sonos sharing agreement and let Alexa scan for your Sonos devices and then go onto try the voice instruction again.
I don’t use Pandora, but I understand a paid subscription to the music service is required for playback voice-control on Sonos and the same Pandora account/service needs to be installed in both the Alexa App, aswell as the Sonos App.
Thank you for your reply. Its strange as it used to work before and suddenly just stopped carrying out voice commands. I will try your suggestion. Many thanks Ken!
Usually, removing/reinstalling the Sonos Skill in the Amazon Alexa App tends to resolve these sort of issues, so hope that works for you. 👍
