      Hi Mark, Apple Music and Sonos Playlists aren't supported as sources to start playback from using Alexa. Once a playlist is playing, Alexa can pause, change tracks, and adjust volume.

      Oh well - I'll just accept your judgement on all this, as evidently you are not foolish

      If by "not foolish" you mean I do not make decidedly self-serving assumptions about the inner workings of two parties when I am not privy to any inside information, then yes, I am most certainly not foolish.

      Well, you are obviously the top expert on all matters Sonos with almost 15000 posts (although no doubt some of these are as mean-spirited & offensive as those you direct at me.), so I have to accord you appropriate deference.

      Post count be damned, I'm no more an authority than you are when it comes to this stuff. Instead of deferring to me, you should defer to the truth. You claimed things that were not backed up by the facts. You were wrong, and got called on it. Your response to that has not been a mature mea culpa, it has been childish attacks and passive aggressive nonsense worthy of a 6 year old. Not a very good look for you.

      To play Apple playlists using voice you need a Harmony Hub, set up playlists to play on your Sonos in Harmony, add a Yonomi routine to start the playlist, then get Alexa to discover it.
