Sorry, if you’ve tried these steps but it’s worth confirming.

 

If you open the Sonos App and click the gear wheel in the top righthand corner of the screen, then click  Manage next to you system name, then scroll down and select Voice Assistants.

 

Do you see Amazon Alexa listed?  If yes, please select it and if your device is not listed, then please select Add to another product and select the device you want to add Alexa to.

When I click on Amazon Alexa under the voice assistant, nothing happens. I don't know how to remove the device since the app doesn't do anything.

I made a screen recording so you can see what happens.

If that’s the case, I think that you need to call Sonos Support, as that’s different behaviour to my App.

Yes but unsurprisingly they are extremely busy at the moment. I, and the other forum regulars, are trying to help.

The new software is complete garbage. I had to disable all voice assistance on my ARC. After new software update it just triggers off the TV audio constantly. 

 

THE NEW SOFTWARE IS COMPLETE CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On these screen shots, it looks as though you’ve selected Sonos Voice Control. Can you send a screen shot after you select Amazon Alexa?

I cant select only Alexa. The "alexa" is non-clickable
