Can the ROAM be connected to an Echo Dot via Bluetooth as to allow my to use the ROAM as an external speaker for the Dot? If not, can I can change the Voice Assistant wake work on the Roam; I have a daughter named Alexa. Thank you and be well….

Sonos Roam connect to Echo Dot via Bluetooth?

Yes, you can pair an Echo Dot with a Roam over Bluetooth in the Alexa app under the Device Settings.
Changing the wake word is not currently supported on Alexa-enabled Sonos speakers.

+1I just paired one of my Echo Dots with my Roam. The Roam didn’t play any audio at first, but after a couple of minutes it started working.

Um, I’ll give it another try when I get home from work. It definitely did NOT work initially even though it paired successfully. Just a side thought, are there different generation DOTS? Once again, thank you!
No problem. Glad I can help.
There are four generations of the Echo Dot. I paired my 2nd Generation Dot to the Roam.
From left to right: 2nd Gen, 3rd Gen, 4th Gen
+1Ok, I have the 2nd. generation one. I will try it again tonight and give it a few minutes to sync up. Once again, much appreciated! I will report back.

Joking aside, if you paired a dot with a Roam via bluetooth, and then grouped the Roam with any of/all the other Sonos speakers across your house, you could here the Alexa response anywhere you want to.

Awesome, thank you. I am really hoping that my DOT works with the ROAM.
+1Ok, so tried again, no luck. So, decided to call CS and we were able to set it up that when I say, “Hey Amazon, Play xxx through Sonos Roam”, that works for music. Thanks again!
