Keep my Echo Dot in addtion to the One, just a waste of power Have Sonos actually tested a Hue Bridge v1 with a Sonos One and no other alexa devices involved? From what i'm seeing that simply doesn't work. This traffic doesnt occur when i use just the Sonos One.
Most of that is all cloud based.Īre you sure about that? I can see SSDP traffic between my Echo Dot and my Hue bridge when i click discover in the app. What happens when you say "discover devices" is a command is issued to your Alexa app to search for devices on the network. May i ask if you have the v1 or v2 hue bridge and if you have any other Alexa devices on your network?Īs long as you have the necessary skills enabled on your Alexa App, you should be able to use the Sonos One to discover any of those devices. I can confirm my Sonos one controls my Hue without any issues. It just seems like your product doesn't actually have the native support for Hue devices. While running a "discover devices", invoked from either the app or the voice command, i have run a packet capture for all traffic originating from the One over my wifi, i can see some HTTPS traffic out to 52.94.216.73 which is presumably the voice data going to Amazon, and some standard stuff like DNS and ARP, but no multicast or broadcast traffic that would suggest an actual search for the hue bridge.
If i ask the One to "discover devices" it completes suspciously fast, around 2 seconds, saying it has found 11 devices (it should be around 20 with my bulbs). Can you 100% confirm that isn't the case? Hi Ryan, can you or anyone from Sonos assist with my issue? Amazon have been no help.Īfter all my testing it just seems like the One wont discover the hue bridge without having a companion Echo device. The Sonos One doesn't have a built-in smart hub so you can't run Hue devices directly off of it, but you can use Alexa within the device to issue commands to your devices. The difference there is that some features are Amazon Echo only, such as drop in and calling features. One thing to bring up is that the Sonos One has Amazon Alexa built in, which means it's an Alexa enabled device, but it's not an Echo device. The only skill you need are the Hue and the Sonos Alexa skills. Hue alarm clock: Want to sync your lights to your alarm?
