I have not used this amp but have been doing some research for a similar
application.  I was suggesting get additional dots and plug them
directly into the multi-room amplifier with the name of the zone or
room.  You would then use the dots in the rooms to tell Alexa to play
the music in each room through the speakers:

"master bedroom" dot ->multiroom amp->master bedroom speakers
"living room" dot ->multiroom amp->living room speakers
"kitchen" dot ->multiroom amp->kitchen speakers
Squeezebox Duet ->multiroom amp "PA" input->all speakers

This way you can tell Alexa from any of the other echo devices to "play
Pandora in master bedroom" and it would only play music through your dot
named "master bedroom".  I believe you should be able to use the volume
control built into Alexa directly so the keypads would not be required
at all.  The keypads would be convenient hardware controls in each zone
but it looks like you could get the same functionality using this app
and the required wifi to RS232 adapter
