I can relate!

My Dash Wand is now a limited remote control for my Dots

Commands: start, stop, pause, resume, skip, repeat

This is very handy! It even works on my Tap!

Volume control is NOT supported

Volume control works on my devices (say "Volume up/down on *device name*"). I tested this using both Dash Wand and Fire HD 8 to control device volume.

Music Everywhere is a great feature. I do have a few problems with it, however.

I can use my dedicated Echo/Dot Remote to start Music Everywhere, but it won't control any subsequent functions (stop, skip, pause, etc.). This is inconvenient. I can control all functions with Dash Wand and Fire HD 8, though.

Also, as stated up-thread, it doesn't work with Bluetooth speakers. And Music Everywhere doesn't work with the Tap.

All in all, I am very pleased with the improvements Amazon's been making with Alexa-enabled devices.
