Orbi Voice is not supporting Alexa Multi-room playback feature, this really degrades the whole home integration functionality of the built in speaker

Ridiculous.
This speaker was the deciding factor in my purchase.
Now it's the only speaker I don't use.
Stupid.
It doesn't support comunication features like Anouncments and Drop-in either. I figured it was because this wasn't a native Amazon device until I got my Yamaha soundbar and it worked just fine. It's clearly this device's integration that makes it basically useless as part of my smart home. I literally have an Echo Dot sitting next to this thing and I keep the microphone muted so it just works as a wifi mesh satellite an nothing more.
Bump. Would also like this feature. It's really dumb that Alexa can't see this device but it has Alexa. If an Echo and Satellite both hear me, they say a response separately too. It's really a poor implementation.
