Thank you !
Hi Muntos It should work for you. Provided that the Squeezelite shows up in the LMS as a player, you'll be able to control it with the Alexa skill. I use softsqueeze in testing along with a range of hardware devices and it works perfectly. If you want to sign up for Alpha testing, set up an Amazon developer account and PM me the email address you used. It is still somewhat technical and there's always the risk of ruining your LMS set up so I understand why people might not want to get involved just yet but if you have a backup and are comfortable configuring your LMS, you should be fine.
