Feature Request: Better Voice control when loud music playing

As a listener, I wish my Sonos One could hear my voice commands when music is playing at higher volumes so that I don’t have to turn it down or use my phone in order to control the speaker.

Look at the Amazon Echo Input as an example.  I have one of those as well, and it does a really cool trick:  when it is streaming music, it filters the music stream from its mic input.  I can have the music up loud, and still very quietly utter an Alexa command and it will “hear” me and respond.  That’s an awesome feature!  I’d love it if my Sonos One could do that.
