Bring Multi-Room support to AudioPlayer API streaming
Alexa Multi Room streaming does not appear to be available for third party skills that leverage the AudioPlayer API.
Feature request is to extend support for Multi Room to the AudioPlayer interface. This could be implemented by adding a custom slot type for the multi room location and then adding an optional parameter to the Play() command to allow the destination room group to be specified.

I have been an Amazon alexa fan from the beginning. I've endured the hiccups and the successes. I have literally over 1000 cds I've purchased over the decades. having an app that lets me leverage my own collection to play where-ever I like would be a great boon for Amazon.

Multi-room would encourage greater use of Alexa in many ways - so it would be great if it could be enabled ASAP

Please enable the API for my media for alexa. I have five echos across my home and I couldn't hear my personal music.

I have multiple echo devices being able to have 3rd party applications stream audio to all of them would be great when I am moving around and doing house work.

Please add Multi-room support to third party apps such as MyMedia. Multiroom is a large part of why I have any Echo speakers

Amazon, this is a needed capability. Multi-room audio should have been a no-brainer. To impair 3rd party apps by not allowing this, you are hindering adoption of your products and frustrating your users.

Please just add multi room/stereo paired capability to audio from BBC Sounds. I have a speaker group set up (2 x Echo Dots & an Echo Sub), I would like to hear audio from the BBC Sounds skill through my speaker group, not just one of the Echo Dots. Thanks.

I’ve got many Echo devices, including a stereo pair of Echo Plus’, but I can’t get the BBC skill to play radio broadcasts through the stereo pair. That’s ludicrous. Amazon needs to fix this. It’s infuriating.

I am in France and I am using a devialet player from Free. Unfortunately this is not working with multi rooms . So is it possible to take into account this request to have this possibility; this will be wonderful! Thanks!
