Perhaps see if this community thread (and links off) assist you to get your doorbell working with Sonos…

Unfortunately, the Alexa app only allows you to choose an “Echo Device” to use as an “Announcement Device” for a Ring doorbell. Even though the Ones are enabled with Alexa, the Alexa app still classifies them as a “Speaker” rather than an “Echo Device”. And setting the Sonos speaker as the “preferred speaker” for an Echo device doesn’t work either.

But you should be able to create an Alexa Routine to get it to work.
