"Hey Guys,\n\nFirst time poster here. I'm having an issue here where I have a Sonos One grouped on my patio with 4 other Play:1's. I figured this would be a good way to get alexa working with the whole group on the patio. \n\nIt's all been working really well except for one really annoying problem. When I say \"Alexa\" the Sonos One responds and lowers the volume on itself only for me to speak. The other grouped Play: 1 speakers keep playing music at the same volume and as they are near the Sonos One it completely ruins anything I try to say to Alexa.\n\nIs this expected behaviour or should Alexa be lowering the volume on the whole group when I speak to the Sonos One as part of the group? Anyone know a workaround for this? And is there anything technically wrong with having 4 Play: 1's and 1 Sonos One all as mono speakers grouped in the one area? As it is a large area I didn't want there to be a small sweet spot between stereo pairs and the sound does appear to be really good with all these speakers near each other in mono.\n\nThanks in advance."
