Alexa is enabled in my Sonos app but when I ask to turn TV on for example it says OK but nothing happens but if I ask when Alexa app is open it turns TV on. Also when Alexa app is open I can turn light on but not from Sonos, it says can’t find device
Hi
You shouldn’t need the Alexa app open to control your Sonos with Alexa, and I’m not sure why it only works that way. I would recommend following the steps in our support article for Alexa commands not working on Sonos.
I can’t find anything that relating to your issue, but it sounds like it could be a problem with the Alexa skill. Try disabling and re-enabling the skill by going to More →Skills & Games → Your Skills → Sonos → Disable Skill, then Enable Skill.
If the above steps don’t resolve this issue for you, I would suggest reaching out to our support team for further assistance.
I hope this helps!
I have 2 Amazon accounts and it turned out that I had the wrong Amazon Alexa log in. Thanks for your reply
