HI, I have only one room using Sonos. I want to use Amazon Echo to control Spotify, but don't want to always have to say "in the living room" since I only have one room in my system. Is there a way to manage this? Thanks.

Sonos has said they are working on that ability (linking Sonos speaker to Echo permanently to avoid having to tell it what room).

    It's mostly due to the fact that the Alexa APIs don't allow linking of devices to a particular room - I'm sure Amazon will be adding that as it applies to all smart devices, lights etc. Hopefully that will also mean that speakers in other rooms don't need to be 'ducked' when talking with an Echo device in another.
