Okay, I hit the back button that was reset/wake. That did the trick and I got the time. At least I know it works now. Bill

However, it may be muted. There are four buttons on top. Of the 5th gen Dot. A plus and minus which are volume buttons. A round button which is both used for resetting and for waking up the Lady A. And opposite that is the mute button. That mute button makes a sound when mute goes on and off. It is higher pitched when mute goes off than when it is muted. Hope that helps.
