Sonos is in discussions to potentially build Roku voice control into its smart speakers, according to CNET. The report says that these are still “preliminary talks,” so they’re not a sure thing, but given that Roku’s voice assistant isn’t out yet, that makes enough sense.
The partnership, if it develops, would allow people to use the microphones built into Sonos’ speakers to control what’s playing on their Roku-connected TVs, much like you can already do with Roku’s Voice Remote. The integration could be even more powerful once Roku’s “Entertainment Assistant” launches, but we haven’t seen everything that it’ll be capable of yet.
