Alexa unable to control Spotify on Play 1

I’m using an Echo Dot with a couple of Sonos Play 1’s, I cant however get Alexa to play Spotify on my Play 1’s. Alexa just returns “Spotify is not supported on this device”

If I start my Spotify stream from the Sonos or Spotify App then Alexa can control volume and track but I can’t control by artist, album or playlist

Should this work or is it just a case of waiting for a Sonos update?

Sonos Play:1

Hi I am experiencing the same problem. Has it now been resolved as I am struggling to sort it. I’ve been through the set up process.

I am experiencing the same problem as well and would think that this would have been taken care of in the year it has taken to bring this product to the market.
Is there any other limitations that I should be aware of?
