I cannot get voice control to play any of my Sonos playlists. It just starts playing something random from other services. This Sonos article states that playing Sonos playlists is supported in voice control.

But not working for me. Any suggestions?

My Sonos Voice Control defaults to the Sonos Playlist even though I have a playlist with the same name in both Amazon Music Unlimited and Apple Music.  The way I can tell that the playlist chosen by SVC is the Sonos Playlist and not one of the playlists in the two services is because the Sonos Playlist has a mix of Apple & Amazon tracks.  My request is “Hey Sonos. Play Atmos Classical 6”.  I do not tell SVC where that playlist is.

Thanks for your response. But it doesn’t help me. You can SVC your Sonos playlists, but I can’t. Why? To clarify, sometimes the response from SVC is “I cannot find that content, should I play xxxx instead?”

Since we are a user community, perhaps you could try asking Sonos support?
