Unable to Play Amazon Music on Sonos (JP Prime Member)

Hello,

I am a user in Japan with an active Amazon Prime membership. I have been unable to play Amazon Music through the Sonos app for the past few weeks.

When I try to play a song from Amazon Music using the Sonos app, playback does not start and I get the following message (see attached screenshot):  
"Go Unlimited. Listen to this music and tens of millions more songs with Amazon Music Unlimited. Sign-up at https://www.amazon.co.jp/music_on_sonos".

Amazon Music and Sonos are already connected.  (Japanese UI, translated below, see attachment 2):  

"Thank you. Amazon Music is now ready to play on your Sonos device. You can return to the Sonos app."


Despite this, playback still does not start.

- Amazon Music used to work fine with Sonos previously.
- I am using Amazon Prime Music, not Amazon Music Unlimited.
- The account connection says it is completed.

I have already searched this forum for solutions, reinstalled the Sonos, Alexa, and Amazon Music apps, and performed a factory reset on the Roam 2. 

 

Could anyone advise how to resolve this issue or what steps I should try next?

Have you changed your Amazon account to a business account?

A Prime business account does not include Prime Music.

If you are using a consumer Amazon Prime account are you signing in to the correct Amazon account when you add to Sonos?

If all else fails, contact Sonos Support as they may be able to provide more information and a possible solution to the error message you are seeing.

Hello Mr. T,

Thank you for your reply and helpful suggestions.
I have not changed my Amazon account to a business account—it is still a regular consumer Amazon Prime account.  
I have also double-checked that I am signing in with the correct Amazon account on Sonos.
I will try contacting Sonos Support next.

こんにちは。

私も同様の症状が発生したため、ここに解決した方策を記載します。

すでにご解決済みであれば、失礼します。私の備忘録として記載します。

 

■対処 ※色々試行錯誤したため、順序が間違っている可能性あり。どれが直接の原因・解決策かは不明です。

1)すべてのアカウント連携・接続を解除(Alexaアプリ、Sonosアプリ)

1-1)Alexaアプリで、「デバイス」→Sonos端末の接続解除

1-2)Alexaアプリで、「スキル・ゲーム」→Sonosスキルを「無効」

1-3)Sonosアプリで、「コンテンツサービス」→Amazon Musicを削除

1-4)Sonosアプリで、端末設定→「音声アシスタント」→Amazon Alexaを削除

2)再設定

 1-3 → 1-4、1-2 の順で再設定した。

 

■症状:2025年11月20日ごろから、アレクサと声かけてもAmazon Musicが再生されなくなる。Amazon Musicアプリから操作しても音楽再生されない。
