Alexa news briefing doesn't work

I've tried everything but on my new Sonos One Alexa says "Here's your news briefing" and then stops talking. I thought this should be supported now? Any advice?

      Have you set-up your news briefing in the Alexa App>Settings>Flash Briefing?

      Yep - we added a few sources. Still nothing.

      Can you try Alexa App>Skills>Your Skills>Sonos and then 'Disable' followed by 'Enable'. Next, please power down your Sonos One for 10 secs and then boot and retest.
