Hello everyone!

Shortly i bought a new Sonos one. And at first i was very happy about it. The sound is good and functionality with Alexa quite okay. But adding smart devices seems to be a bit tricky...
I've red certain topics here about "addind smart devices" but i could not find any topic about broadlink rm pro. Does anybody have some experience with Sonons one an broadlink rm pro ?

You may be able to locate the skill here ... https://www.amazon.com/BroadLink-Remote-Control/dp/B073PLQYKS

See if it works in your country. Note it may only support instructions given in English language.

Otherwise you may have to contact Broadlink and see if they have any plans to expand their Alexa skill to include the German language.

Yesterday i tested the tutorial. My sonos Alexa spoke german and i was able to control my tv via BroadLink skill in english.....great i thought. But when i close the alexa app and start it again the us broadlink skill has been removed.

I also have an answer from BroadLink support:

"Dear Customer,
Thanks for your interesting of BroadLink products!
Pls kindly note we will open the Alexa to work in the German, but there is no detail data time, thanks!"

So anybody has an idea how the us skill stays in the alexa app?:?
