As mentioned in the early days of the thread, Alexa always hears/returns
spoken numbers like 'two' as '2'. Long ago, I improved the matching of
numbers in album, artist and song names, but I forgot to do that for
player names - which, incidentally, were not fuzzy matched.

I just updated the live code so that spelled-out numbers in player names
are replaced by their numerical equivalents and also added fuzzy
matching. This should make it much easier to have player names like
'Bedroom 1', 'Bedroom 2' or 'Bedroom Two'. You'll still get a warning
during discovery that it's -better -not to include numbers at all, but
most people ignored that warning. Now, it should work pretty much most
of the time, even with numbers (under 10).

No need to download or re-link anything. Just say "Alexa, tell
MediaServer to discover my players" to take advantage of the new code.
