There is one thing that could be done (I started a LMS-Alexa bridge a
while ago and stopped as I had other priorities) and that's to act as a
real time stream and send data accordingly to Alexa. I don't remember
exactly where I left that, but I think Alexa can be told that it's a
live stream and that no aggressive buffering shall be done (as we do for
UPnP)



LMS 7.9  on Pi 3B+ & Odroid-C2 - *SqueezeAMP!*, 5xRadio, 3xBoom, 4xDuet,
1xTouch, 1 SB3. Sonos PLAY:3, PLAY:5, Marantz NR1603, Foobar2000,

Squeezelite on Pi,  Yamaha WX-010, AppleTV 4, Airport Express, GGMM E5,
