Restarted everything, disabled and reinstall the skill, Alexa says "welcome to radio paradise" and nothing but silence. Seems to have started yesterday. Just a fyi. I truly enjoy your station. Amazon music works.

Same for me, I'm afraid. I've just installed the RP skill and while it did play for a few songs, it went silent and has stayed that way ever since. A re-install of the skill had no impact; if I say "Alexa play Radio Paradise", I get "Welcome to Radio Paradise" but no music. If I ask her what's playing, her reply does tie up with what it says on the web browser. So, everything else seems OK - just no music :-(

Got the same problem Alexa says welcome to Radio Paradise then nothing no sound at all tried reinstalling the skill still the same ?
If I ask Alexa what’s playing She responds with the song title even though there’s no sound ?

When I ask her to ask rp what’s playing it correctly reports the current song, corresponding to what’s live on my cell phone during the test. This has been the case for at least 2-3 days now.

 
Very sorry about that. Server glitch while I was away for a couple of days. Should be ok now.
 
It’s working now! Thanks Bill!

Hello all morning I cannot get Alexa to play my lovely RP. I unplugged Alexa, I disenabled the RP skill and re-enabled it. Nothing is working. My internet is through AT&T. Any advice? I don't know what to try. I saw Bill's note about hopefully fixing issue on Oct 22 but 2 weeks later am I the only one having this problem?

We're transitioning Alexa from MP3 to AAC streaming (better sound, lower bitrates = better reliability) & the path has been a bit rockier than we expected. Sorry about that.

I just made another change that might have corrected the problem that came up for you.

 
Working fine this morning, and I totally support a little short term pain for a better long term experience.  I just wanted to make sure I knew if it was isolated to my network / unit.

Thank you for making possible this station that is such an important part of my musical exploration and for having the courage to continue to experiment with it.

FWIW, the skill is still behaving strangely for me.  Intermittently, it will start silent on me.  I restarted the Echo, and I disabled and re-enabled the skill yesterday, but this morning it started silent again.  BUT, when I asked Alexa to skip to the next track, I got audio.  I'll continue to experiment.

We're trying to sort this out. Very sorry about the problem.

It seems to be working fine for most people (including me & our developer), but a few of you are still having an issue.

Might be worth trying a device reset (unplug & restart).
