Question about Sonos Beam

The app says to the voice service: "Not available in your country". What is that about?

If you have an Amazon account in the US , UK or Germany and a VPN that makes you look like you are in those countries you can get Alexa to work. You will need to have the Alexa app working on your phone and on the sonos app change the region to the same region as you amazon account. Sonos then allows you to configure Alexa as a voice service.

Sure it works. Simply create a second Amazon account with a German address.
VPN is not necessary, simply uninstall the German account in the Alexa app and (if installed) the Amazon app or register the German account there.
Then configure the voice service in the Sonos app. The whole thing takes less than 10 minutes.

I'm annoyed about it too, but unfortunately that's the way it is. Sonos+Alexa does not yet work in Switzerland.
