[INFO] Enabling Native Alexa skill for Sonos


AutoFrank

Question

Hi Forum,

The native skill for sonos is now available :-)

from Sonos 

 

Quote

Now in Open Beta, wirelessly connect all of your Sonos speakers to any Amazon Alexa enabled device, like the Echo or Echo Dot, then just ask for the music you love. Blend the great sound and multi-room listening of Sonos with the convenient voice control of Amazon Alexa. Just enable this skill and you’ve got quick, hands-free control of your favorite music and more. Currently, you'll need to say the name of the room when you start music or control the volume. "Alexa, play jazz in the living room." "Alexa, turn up the volume in the kitchen." This is temporary, and will improve throughout the beta.

 

There are also updates for the system and for all the controller platforms (android, desktop, iOS)

 

To enable the skill you will need a Sonos account which you should have created with the last Sonos update.

Log into your Alexa account and find the and enable the Sonos Skill

 

Please login or register to see this attachment.

 

This will redirect you to you Sonos account to get your permission to link to your sonos system

You will then be redirected back to the alexa account to discover your sonos devices

after discovery you will see the list of players

Hello guys,

 

Is Sonos One user able to add Alexa skill to control Fibaro, or is it just for Sonos functions (Radios, Deezer, Tidal, ...)?
