Sorry for my mistake.

I found out that AirPlay worked again after I set the Sonos Beam to factory settings. AirPlay asked for the pin again after I set up Alexa.

Then I set the Sonos back to factory settings and connected an iPhone to AirPlay. Then I set up Alexa during AirPlay playback.

Now AirPlay works again without a pin.

Weird, but that's how it was.
