Maybe I’m wrong here, but seems year ago the Sonos API had a “Speak Text and Resume” option, so back then in my SmartThings days, I could have Sonos speak a TTS alert and then it’d continue playing music where it left off. I’m now on Hubitat, but I believe this feature has gone away altogether. Am I wrong about that?

Is there any way to get Sonos to resume playing a song after it’s interrupted by a TTS request?

The Sonos cloud API has such a method, yes, described here:

The cloud API is kind of lame, which is why there are few clients of it outside of the music service companies. I am not familiar with either of the apps you listed.
