Question

Playing CDs with Line In - interfere with Alexa?

Considering buying a Play 5 for both Spotify and to hook up the to a conventional high end stereo CD player (please don’t try to convince me to rip several thousand CDs). In settings I read you adjust to play automatically from line in. Pop in CD, press play, bingo. Would this change of settings interfere with or override Alexa because Sonos is looking only to “line in”? In other words, after I play the CD, can I just bark into Sonos: “Alexa, play What is Love”? Tx

    Once Spotify is available via Sonos Alexa, I don't see why it should not play. The command may need to be " Alexa, play What is Love song on room name" though, else it will play on the Echo or Dot device - with room name being the label used in Sonos for the desired Sonos speaker.
