Question

Resuming music after executing a command (Echo Dot connected to Play 5)

If I am playing music using Pandora, then ask Alexa to add something to a Shopping List, the music stops but never resumes. I have to then ask Alexa to start music again. Seems like music should simply get quieter as I'm talking to Alexa, and then resume previous volume after command is executed.

    Okay, this is all starting to make more sense.

    I guess then, really, I don't see a benefit of using the Line In feature at all if the only benefit is to keep me from having to say a couple extra words. Don't get me wrong... I'm pretty lazy. But even I am not that lazy. :P

    Plus, if I don't use the line in feature, I can move the Dot to a more central location in the room.

    I would be curious to know from those who prefer the line in feature as to why... assuming there are reasons that haven't already been mentioned.

    Thanks for everyone's input. Now, Alexa is starting to be as fun as everyone says she is.
