I found this in a review for Roborock plus skill review.

"Finally, surprisingly, last day I found it works with specific rooms. Have to be named in English. And need to ASK ("Alexa, ask Roborock to clean kitchen", for example)."

Doesn't work for me, has anyone else got this to work? When I say Alexa, tell Roborock to clean kitchen, it still just starts a full cleaning?

It didn't used to work for me and behaved as you described but recently I found it was working. I have no idea when or what changed. I am using a s6 mzv with the roborock app, .de alexa app with everything set to English.

it works for me. You literally have to say "Alexa ASK roborock to clean the kitchen". The key is you must say "ASK" not "TELL." Doing that, it works perfectly.

I do have issues getting it to clean some of my other rooms, though. It does kitchen/living room just fine, but doesn't seem to understand me when I say 'Guest Room' or 'Playroom' or 'Master Bedroom'... I wonder if those names are too long/hard? Perhaps I'll try easier names. Has anyone else tried this?
