Hi @RDJT.

Welcome to the Sonos community and thanks for reaching out and trying the recommendations I have posted above. I definitely understand it can be quite frustrating about things not working as expected. Let me help you out.

I would still recommend going through the above recommendation accordingly, performing each step to a tee. If it would be possible, I would recommend performing the above recommendations using only a single mobile controller (making sure that other mobile controllers that have access to your Sonos System be turned off). If after performing the above recommendation accordingly and still the issue persists. I would recommend submitting a diagnostic and contact our technical support team for a more in-depth troubleshooting step.

Please let me know how it goes. We are always here to help.

Thanks,

Thanks @Paul A it worked this time! Much appreciated. 

Hi @RDJT.

Thanks for the update and immediate response.
I’m glad that the troubleshooting steps above were able to fix your issue. The main purpose of the troubleshooting steps above is to make sure that Amazon Alexa’s amazon account is not mixed up with other Amazon-related accounts such as Amazon Prime, Amazon shopping, etc. I do hope you continue to love and enjoy your Sonos.

If you still have further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out or create a topic. We are always here to help.

Thanks,

I had this problem after I updated the Sonos software. I tried every fix I could find, reinstalled the older software, rebooted, reset, turned off and signed out of every Amazon thing I had ever owned. Gave up after several weeks of trying. We were left with an Alexa that would not link to Spotify or any other music service.

What finally sorted it was disengaging the Alexa voice assistant and enabling Google Assistant instead.

Works a treat now.

Maddening as we bought this originally for the Alexa functionality. But not missing it at all now!
