Hi

On all of my Sonos speakers, Moves &one’s.

When asking Alexa To play an audible book, she begins to play, but if I ask her to be rewind one minute or any other amount of time she says “Nothing is currently playing “

I have tried the same commands on a Amazon echo and it works fine.

I have tried the same commands on a Amazon echo and it works fine.

this used to work fine a couple of weeks ago I was only recently in the last 3 to 4 weeks stopped

 

This used to work fine and then It suddenly stopped working a few weeks ago.

In the Sonos app I have unauthorised and re-authorised my audible account and this has made no change, I have also rebooted all of my speakers and this has made no change.

if I ask Alexa to play music from either Amazon or Apple it works fine and will also fast forward or rewind the time asked.

 

Please help!

Same here. Why isn't this fixed yet?!!

I recommend you get in touch with Audible and give them this feedback - they are the only ones in a position to alter the functioning of their Alexa skill.

Corry P I don't know if you are a Sonos employee, but this is not really the right answer. You should not tell your customers "tell Amazon/Audible it's not working". It should be Sonos.

This has been a known bug/problem for months now. I can hardly believe Sonos could do anything to get around the problem together with Amazon.

    Exact same issue.  I was planning on updating some speakers and replacing my surround sound with Sonos, but this issue put a halt to all that.  It seems like features are degrading.  It shouldn’t be the customer’s job to track down and coordinate a fix on a premium product. I’m not dropping another $2k until this is resolved.
