Since I haven't used more than one Dot at a time, does that mean you could have an Echo in a kitchen for general use or someone who doesn't need to use the main audio system (with speakers in the kitchen) and saying "Alexa- play XXX" will play music only on that one, but saying "Alexa- play music in the kitchen" will cause another Dot in the rack to fire up the equipment that plays music in the Kitchen without turning on the other one, as long as both aren't named 'Kitchen'?
That would be correct! You are basically commanding the kitchen dot to play music on another dot. Kitchen dot is named Kitchen, dot int the using audio out to distribution system is named house or whatever. You will need to tell kitchen dot, or any other dot, the command you need to turn on the speakers in that room. Then tell any dot to play x on house dot. The house dot in rack starts streaming music from the house dot to the amp. Fugg Sonos.
if you say play X in kitchen, it will play on the kitchen dot. If you tell the rack dot to play, it will play on whatever speakers you have on an attached amp.
