i’m not able to listen anything.

this is the screen with the playlist but when i click on play butto it doesn’t start, despite i have associated several player

Have you selected a player down in the corner? Click the speaker and select which media player it should play back on…

Also, you might try giving it some volume.

yes i did it but nothing. the problem is that doesn’t start

Have you added a player provider?

yes, look the image in the reply above

So what device are you playing to now?

Home Assistant Media Player with Alexa Media Player

I think we need logs.

and therefore how can i play music from my device like tablet or pc from the dashboard?

Perhaps you should look at the Music Assistant Documentation for the supported players.

Edit: While the documentation seems to go out of the way not to mention the words Amazon, Echo, or Alexa, this discussion gives you details Support for Alexa Media Player · music-assistant · Discussion #431

i read it but i’m not able to understand the right process/way to listen from my device like my laptop and so on…
