Adding Alexa to an existing group of speakers

Hi, a quick question: I have 3 Sonos speakers in my living room. (2 Sonos Play 1s and a sub.) That group is called "Living Room." I have an Amazon Echo in my kitchen. Is there any way I can join everything and create a "Whole House" group, essentially add the Echo to what I already have? I see lots of posts about adding Sonos to Alexa's functionality, but not the other way around--just adding Alexa to my existing Sonos situation. Thanks!

    Hi there, qbertitis. Thanks for posting to the Community. At this time there isn't any information on adding the Echo as a speaker in Sonos. I'll be sure to forward this idea to the team for consideration. Thanks again for the feedback!

    No. Alexa grouping is not supported for 3rd party speakers at this time. Amazon is said to be working on this.
