Alexa Continue works only after short period, but not after longer period
Posted: Sun Jan 08, 2023 2:51 pm
When playing for example SomaFM skill, I can say even the next day "Alexa continue" and it will restart the playback.
But when saying that to MyMedia it only work when I say it shortly after "Alexa pause", few hours later the "Alexa continue" doesn't wokr, however if I will explicitly state the name of the song, it will star playing without issue, so don't think it's a issue of firewall. Here is my log (first it fails as continue command, second attempt works when asked explicitly):
This runs on RaspberyPi4 which is always avaiable and always on 24/7.
