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!

    Building community is like building a garden. You build the frame, till the ground, plant the seeds, feed the plants & sometimes you gotta pull the weeds.

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