    Hi

    After Amazon release Alexa in a new country there is a need for Sonos to undertake some development and testing. This means that there is always a lag between Alexa being released and Sonos supporting voice control.

    If you create a UK or US account for Amazon, Spotify (or whatever music streaming service you are using) and change your address in your profile on www.sonos.com then it should all work in English.

    Excellent. That works. I then changed my country back to Spain and Alexa stayed but switched to Spanish! I changed address again so I'm not sure how long it would've lasted as the app went back to saying Alexa wasn't available in my region.
