    Are you logged onto any other Amazon app on your phone with perhaps a different account? Try again after logging out of all Amazon apps and please retest.

    Same issue, I think. Alexa on Sonos One plays most but not all music on Amazon. Annoying. Songs that don't play show on the Alea app and the Sonos app but no sound. Same non-playing songs do play fine if played through the Sonos app playing Amazon library. Seems like an Alexa disconnect Amazon says it's a Sonos issue not Amazon. Thoughts?
