I use Alexa on a house filled with Sonos speakers every day. She barely works and is the worst advertisement for Amazon.
"Alexa turn on my FireTV" (doesn't work, weirdly FireTV and Alexa speakers don't seem to get along)
"Alexa play The Killers" (responds with "Playing the killers on Spotify" then silence)
"Alexa play The Killers on Spotify" (works)
"Alexa play The Killers" (sometimes tells me to start scanning devices and install a skill for Sonos)
"Alexa wikipedia 'history of Bulgaria'" (works but asks me if I want to continue after every sentence, so I give up)
"Alexa stop" (doesn't stop for some apps, Amazon should have support for silencing as a minimum requirement for apps and implement worst-case scenarios if an app doesn't respond to stop in time)
"Alexa rewind 30 seconds" (doesn't rewind for some apps, Amazon should have support for rewinding played recordings as a minimum requirement for apps)
