I just conducted an experiment to see how long the "resume" command works to restart music where you left off earlier:
I said "Alexa, play Big Christmas Box."
Then "Alexa, pause (or stop)."
I asked for the weather and set a short timer.
Two hours later, I said "Alexa, resume."
The music started where it left off.
So, it may be possible to resume play after quite a long interruption (as long as you didn't give other music/audiobook commands in the interim).
Here's a list of Echo music commands: https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/custo...deId=201601830. Perhaps there's something there that'll help you (or someone else). |
I finally gave up on voice commands and went through the Alexa app. There I was able to pull up the album, scroll through the tracks, and start with the desired track; the playing then continued with the subsequent tracks.
It's surprising that voice commands to play music aren't more flexible, as I would think that would be the primary use for most people, especially those who have Echo.
Thank you for your help!
