Question

Alexa and Sonos Playbar

I have a Sonos Playbar in my lounge and Play 1's in two other downstairs rooms. I purchased an Echo and set it up in the lounge near to the Playbar. I enabled Sonos and whilst the Echo plays music on the Play 1's, it won't work on the Playbar. Instead the music in the lounge comes from the Echo speakers. What can I do to make the Echo use the Playbar?

    Can you open the Alexa App>Smart Home>Devices and make sure that you don't have multiple devices with the same name. I personally use the naming convention Room Name + Device Type to avoid this. e.g. Kitchen Sonos, Kitchen Echo Dot

    Are you using the syntax 'Alexa, Play Ed Sheeran on {Sonos Speaker name}'

    Note:

    If you change the name of a device you will need to select Alexa App>Smart Home>Devices>Discover
