i have joined audible and can get those books to play in the android app and on all my eligible devices

alexa can aleggedly "read" any kindle book I won, and any KU I have on load. yes she can IF I tell her use the amaon echo device we have, but alexa on my sonos speaker just says something went wrong, and alexa in the android app on my moto phone fails also. and fails with "play on this device" option...

can someone please provide a detailed grid of hat's supposed to work, where and how, as I'd rather not waste a day testing all permutations, like does it matter if its a Kindle unlimited loan or not...
and without getting out of the cupboard, I expect my Fire tablet would work, but probably not my Huawei etc etc...

I'm guessing that mu phone lacks the decryption key for Kindle text, as I only installed alexa and not the amazon kindle app also- maybe??? OTOH it can see the books OK under the " play" options in Alexa app.
nothing on amazon help about that, as they never mention the DRM...
