Hi,

I have a Bluesound Pulse 2i and play via spotify connect without problems. However, the advertised connectivity with Amamzon Alexa is a joke. I have otherwise quite good experience connecting lights(Hue) etc with Alexa.

Very limited Alexa/Bluesound functionality, if any….

Any good guidance on connecting these two? I would like to be able to control Spotify playlists and so on.

/Thomas

  Hi Thomas

  Thanks for the feedback. Please see; https://support.bluos.net/hc/en-us/articles/360009439514

  As for Spotify, due to their API, Spotify's end-point Connect system will not allow for true third-party device control. You will not be able to select a Spotify Playlist through the BluVoice Skills. This is a common complaint in the Spotify Community. Let Spotify know.
