Amazon S3 tags when put together if more then five then the combination doesn't play? What might be the reason? I am trying to play this--

<speak>
    <audio src = "https://s3.amazonaws.com/morsecodesounds/Is.mp3" />
    <audio src = "https://s3.amazonaws.com/morsecodesounds/Ie.mp3" />
    <audio src = "https://s3.amazonaws.com/morsecodesounds/Il.mp3" />
    <audio src = "https://s3.amazonaws.com/morsecodesounds/Ie.mp3" />
    <audio src = "https://s3.amazonaws.com/morsecodesounds/Ic.mp3" />
    <audio src = "https://s3.amazonaws.com/morsecodesounds/It.mp3" />
</speak>

This is what i tested on the alexa developer console did not play it.

Solution

  • Just to wrap this up nicely for anyone looking for the answer: https://developer.amazon.com/docs/custom-skills/handle-requests-sent-by-alexa.html

    "When Alexa renders this response, it would sound like this:

    Alexa: Welcome to Car-Fu. (the specified amzn_sfx_car_accelerate_01.mp3 audio file plays) Alexa: You can order a ride, or request a fare estimate. Which will it be?"

    The audio files you include within your service's response must be very short to ensure a good user experience. You can include up to five audio files in a single response. The combined total time for all audio files in a single response cannot be more than 240 seconds. For specific requirements and limitations on the audio files, see Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) Reference.
