Playing music

[redrose54]

Please forgive me if this is a glaringly stupid question but I’m a possibly the least technically knowledgeable person on the internet!

First a quick bit of background, I live with my elderly mother, physical disability has left me bedbound since 1996, and since October my mum is becoming increasingly so. We are in adjoining rooms. I have an Alexa Dot and I’ve bought mum an Alexa Pop (unfortunately a combination of her age and health means I’ve been unable to train it to recognise her voice).

I can do 99% of what I want to do but I am unable to instruct her Pop to play music, every conceivable instruction I can think of still ends up playing the music on my Dot; any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

what is the command you have been using?   Usually all you have to do is to tell alexa to play (music) on (name of dot)

Basically anything I can think of from “Alexa play [stream name] on Echo Pop” to “Alexa play [stream name] in main bedroom” and numerous combinations of those.
