Amazon determines from which Alexa-enabled devices (Echos, phones) and
which countries subscriptions can be started, not the skill. So
unfortunately there's no way around that. 

The skill 'discovers' all players that have isplayer:1 in the discovery
response and whose name does not end in an asterisk. If a player is not
included it can only logically be for one of those two reasons. Web
client players, for example, have isplayer:0.
