Thanks.
I just emailed them and will post back the answer.

I am happy that they do have integration finally but I am going to keep adding to mine and building out new features

This is what I got back from Amazon:
This is Melissa with Amazon Echo. Thanks for contacting us today.
At this time, I am not aware of any limitations on the number of
âConnected Homeâ devices (HUE,Wink,SmartThings devices) you can have on
the Echo. I am also not aware of any limit to the number of "Connected
Home" groups that you can have.

how does one get echo to play music (not sure what sources would be supported) to a Sonos speaker?
it discovered my sonos as a device, i was just looking to see what can be done with it now that itâs discovered. was hoping to be able to use the echo as voice control for the sonos systemâŚ

I just setup @DarcRangerâs thermostat control via dimmer switches : Thermostat SmartApps that uses Virtual Switches to control Mode/Fan/SetPoints
And it works great!
âAlexa, set the thermostat to 75â feels natural and works great!
Now we just need a way to check the status of sensors like âwhat is the current temperature in the living roomâ or âis the dinning room window closedâ. Although I think we would need an ASK Skill for this since the native integration will probably only do On/Off/Dim, unless Amazon opened up some more options.
I know @zpriddy had that on his To-do list for his skill 
So glad I bought the Echo!

@JDRoberts, something I found out last night was the Echo does not like using âeverythingâ as a group name. I created a group called Everything and put all my lights (that I wanted turned off) and my TV in so I could say âAlexa, turn off everythingâ before I went to bedâŚit just sounded natural to me. When I run that the echo says âsorry which device do you meanâ so I say âeverythingâ again and it works. Double checking what the Echo heard, it did hear me correctly so I would advise everyone not to use that as a group or even device name.
Just wanted to post it in case it helps someone else out

That is the next item on my to-do list!
However I seem to have found myself moving to the Bay Area so updates are going to be slow for the next few weeks as I try to pack things up⌠However coding is a way for me to distress and so there is a good chance the update will get pushed out soonerâŚ

SONOS
Good news!
@dfairbro1 has both Amazon echo and Sonos linked to smartthings, and reports that the voice command âAlexa, play kitchen Sonosâ did start the previous playlist playing. So thatâs very good. If anyone figures out exactly which commands work to operate Sonos via echo to smartthings to Sonos, let us know.
(Based on something @Tyler said in another topic, Iâm thinking that if you just want the Sonos device to start playing where it left off, you can just use a simple Echo command.
But if you want a specific playlist to start playing that wasnât the last thing the Sonos device did, then you may need to go back to the concept of virtual switches like my harmony control project.)

@JDRoberts I just followed your instructions except I havenât done step 10 add echo app.
PS I have no virtual switches. Not sure how to do that.
Step 10 is only for when you want to go and add new devices later.

Scott I came across the same bug last night, making a group called âEverythingâ and adding everything to it. Said âAlexa, turn everything offâ causes Alexa to ask something like âWhich device?â And if you say âEverythingâ a second time, it does work. However I just re-named the group to âHouseâ and now say âAlexa, turn house offâ and everything is perfect the first time. On a side note, I have a MyQ garage door and as I was walking out, I asked Alexa to open the garage door half jokingly and she replied âThat command does not work on garage doorâ but the garage door opened! I tried a bunch of âclose garage doorâ type commands and seemed to go nowhere, then i thought I repeated âclose THE garage doorâ. And it gave the same error âThat command does not work on garage doorâ and it did close the garage door. But something is wrong, I was able to open again, hearing same error, but not able to close for the life of me, i give up, its buggy. Now I need to rename the door so a burglar cannot just yell âAlexa Open The Garage Door!â LOL

Yup the Everthing was the same thing with mine.
Interesting about the garage door. Iâm hoping Amazon adds more to the Echo like Close and Open. Based off the update frequency from Amazon Iâm hoping thatâs possible. At first I thought the Echo was a little pricy but now worth every penny!

@chuckc81 - thatâs great! Be sure to submit the bugs via the feedback option in the app. As Iâm sure you have experienced, Amazon is VERY quick to respond.
I have 6 different Sonos speakers/amps/line-in items but havenât been successful controlling them via Echo/Smartthings integration - any suggestions on what I am missing?
Sorry, I donât have Sonos but hopefully someone who does can answer.
Meanwhile, were your Sonos devices discovered by echo so that they show up in the Echo connected home device list?
Just installed my Smart Things hub yesterday along with the Echo integration. Did some playing around and gave Alexa some commands to turn on switches and things like that. Is it possible yet to trigger an event so the Echo will play music (i.e. when I get home, have Alexa play music from my playlist)?
I think, right now, itâs pretty much a one-way street⌠Echo/Alexa telling SmartThings what to do.
Someone with more experience might correct me on that if Iâm wrong, but outside of a lot of custom code and custom work I donât think there is a way to trigger Alexa to do something from within SmartThings.
Surely someone has setup Sonos TTS to say âAlexa, play some musicâ just because they can ;).
