SoundBar Alexa

So i want to connect my apple music to my alexa soundbar, but it keeps saying that my apple music cannot be connected with this device, now I remember that when I had my echo dot it did the same thing. Is it able to connect and I just have to keep messing with it or will it not work?

In Alexa app on iPhone using Apple Music Skill why is a separate Echo/Sonos device “required” as connected accessory ? Asking Alexa on iPhone app with Apple Music Skill to “play Apple Music” it only seems to work when Echo/Sonos devices are “connected accessories”. When I use AirPods Pro and many other Bluetooth devices connected only to iPhone I get an Alexa error saying that I need a connected accessory. Even my Kenwood car stereo w/ Alexa Built-in has this problem. But the Spotify, Pandora, Amazon Music, etc. services/skills work fine with these devices using Alexa app. This looks to be a problem with just the Apple Music Skill and not the Alexa app.

Alexa says Apple Music is not supported in this device, yet it was working fine prior? I have a number of Echo Dot 4th generation devices. They all play Apple Music via the skill I have set up, and then suddenly one will not giving me the message “Apple music is not supported on this device”. I have reset, Re enabled, relocated, updated, swapped location of the device but without any lick. Yet my other echo 4 devices on the same network, on the same Amazon and Apple account work without any issue. Hopefully you have a solution….

Hi emmrooo,

We see you'd like to use Apple Music with your Amazon Alexa sound bar but you're unable to get them to communicate.

Apple Music is compatible with most Alexa compatible devices. Take a look at the article below for how to set up Apple Music to play with Alexa and the requirements.

Take care.
