Playing Spotify with Alexa on Sonos One

I just got my Sonos One today and am trying to get Alexa up and running. It is working with all of my home automation, Wink, Nest etc, but I can get Alexa to play anything on Spotify, which is my only music subscription service. She keeps saying “cannot play from Spotify music on that Device”. I have linked all of my accounts, and they show up as linked. I also do have a premium account on Spotify. Anyone have any thoughts? She does offer to set me up an Amazon music account when I just ask for a specific song or artist, then plays me a sample of the song.

    I'm a couple weeks late, but if you missed it Spotify is now playing on Sonos through Alexa. Take a look here for details.

    I suspect that this will happen when Sonos offer Google Assistant as the AI, due in early 2018. Spotify support is available from 21 Dec 2017 and Amazon music streams now.

Strange though since I haven't seen any Spotify support announcement for Sonos One..
