Sonos beam playing music

I cannot figure out how to switch to playing music from watching tv on my beam by using Alexa. Can anyone help out?

Alexa play (insert whatever you want).

If that doesn't work, try going to the alexa app and disabling the sonos skill then re-enabling it. That worked for me.

Have you asked 'Alexa, play soft jazz' on the Beam?

so glad i looked here. I was having the hardest time getting alexa to do anything on the Beam and this seems to have solved it for me as well. Removed the skill, Re-enabled it and then rediscovered devices
