Asking Alexa on Sonos One to play flash briefing results in "Here's your flash briefing" and no flash briefing. I've checked the following:
- my Sonos android app is latest
- the firmware on my Sonos one is latest
- Amazon Alexa app on android is latest
- Sonos one is correctly registered with my Amazon account
- I've verified that the "play flash briefing" routine works as expected on other devices like Amazon echo
Is anyone experiencing this? Is this expected?

Sonos One and flash briefing (news)

I was able to fix this problem.
This problem wasn't just limited to playing flash briefing but affected playing music as well. Resetting Sonos One didn't help. Deregistering it and registering it from Alexa app didn't help.
What worked was disabling Sonos skill from Alexa app, enabling it and rediscovering devices. Alexa commands now work like a charm.
Hope others find this workaround useful.
