Omg, has something been changed? It seems the skip feature is working again on the Alexa skill! Earlier, out of habit, I said "Alexa, skip" and it executed the command without any issues. So happy, thank you! Hopefully it stays this way!

I've never been able to get Alexa working on almost anything, quit using it. I don't that it would be an RP issue.  I cast via Sonos.

The skip feature has stopped working for me too (and for my friends who use the Radio Paradise skill). We use different device, Echo, Echo Dot, and Echo Show 8, with different internet connections in different homes. All of us are using the official skill. For years, saying "Alexa, skip" would move to the next song. Now we always get the response "command not supported." There has definitely been an update or some change, because until a few days ago, opening the skill would immediately start the music, while now there's a new greeting: "Radio Paradise welcomes you." Ever since this greeting appeared, the skip functionality no longer works... Please fix this, it was so convenient. I'm writing from Italy. Thank you!

This broke for us, too, using the Alexa skill on an Echo Dot. I tried disabling and re-enabling the skill, but no luck. Please fix this! The ability to skip is one of the reasons we've stuck with RP for so long (20 years). We're in Montana, USA using Starlink.

Today the "skip" function is inexplicably gone... "command not enabled".

OK, narrowed it down. 👍

Nothing changed in terms of my routines, but Alexa doe behave differently since a few days ago. 

"Alexa, play the Radio Paradise Station" -> Plays Oldies on Tune-in. 🙁

"Alexa, play Radio Paradise Station" -> Plays Radio Paradise Station. 🙂

For some reason, since a few days ago, the mere presence of "the" is now enough to confuse Alexa. 🤷‍♂️

I've removed "the" from all my routines and normal service is now resumed (until next time!) 🤞

Is this just me?

For the last few days asking for "Alexa, play the Radio Paradise Station" (so not the skill, just the stream) more often than not will now play "Oldies Paradise" which seems to be a station on Tune-in. Some times it will work correctly, and RP will play as expected, but that's now rare. Until a couple of days ago, RP worked every time.

This is on an Alexa Dot 5th Gen. In the UK.

Even having "Play the Radio Paradise Station" as part of a routine will play the "Oldies Paradise" station. It's totally weird.

I've checked the Activity history and Alexa IS hearing me say "play the Radio Paradise Station", but it still plays "Oldies Paradise".

The SKILL does still seem to start reliably, so "Alexa, play Radio Paradise" is working as expected, although I've been using the Station rather than the Skill because of the issues with paired speakers (discussed previously in this thread, and still an issue to this day, but now the Station is buggered 🤷‍♂️).

Here's an example routine I have - if you "Play this routine" from the app (3-dot) menu (so no voice command involved) then it will play "Oldies Paradise". Arrrrgghhhh!
