Server Version#: 1.22.3.4523 (QNAP) Player Version#: none available (that I can see) - whatever Amazon has put up. I can say “Alexa, ask plex to play xxxx (name of music)”, and alexa says playing xxxx from as expected. But nothing plays. or “Alexa, Open Plex” and then eg. “play some music” an…

This just started happening to me too. I believe mine is a 1st generation Echo taller device. My other devices work perfectly but this one just stopped working. I tell Alexa to have Plex shuffle a playlist and it replies “Shuffling the playlist XX” but then nothing. Definitely seems like a bug was i…

Plex just updated to Version 1.24.5.5173. Still no Alexa/Plex streaming to Amazon 2nd gen Echo’s running as a stereo pair with an Echo Sub. Just silence after Alexa announces what is “now” playing, but isn’t. Just found out it still streams to ONE Echo or Echo Dot (both 2nd gen) just fine, but go …

Most likely related: Plex not playing music on first generation Echo devices Maybe if we can get the info collected for the devs it’ll help resolve it faster, so I’m going to try to link the threads in a collating effort. For those who have this issue and haven’t yet reported your generation echo d…

I know I have two 2nd generation Echo’s because it’s right on the order from Amazon. I will try the flashlight thing but I don’t think there’s a model number printed on them. Just checked, still nothing plays on 11.2.2021.

Similar issue here. About a month or so ago, the Plex skill on Alexa stopped working on our main Amazon Echo. Alexa announces it is playing the requested album, but does not actually play it. It continues to work on our 3rd generation Echo dots elsewhere in the house, but we have noticed that it do…

So, what can be done? Will anyone do anything to fix this? Whose problem is it? Amazon’s or Plex?

Thanks @tulsatv , I lost track of that issue in the fray. How would we test the cert expiration theory? Is it as easy as “Disable” encryption in the plex server temporarily for testing? Then if Gen 1 devices work then we know it’s cert related? It’d be really helpful for the devs to weigh in here… Bu…

if this was a certificate issue, this seemed to indicate there would be CERT errors (incomplete TLS handshake) in your logs - SSL Certificate Errors I don’t have any CERT errors in my logs - post if any of you find CERT errors perhaps @ChuckPa could weigh in on these Gen 1 echo not playing issues …

I believe the authentication attempt is taking place and failing in code outside our visibility and control. When using the Emby skill for Alexa where I must provide the cert, I continue to have no trouble with music on the Echo, so there is no problem inherent to the 1st gen device for that very s…
