A tale of two Siris

[imrazor]

I have both an iPhone XR and a 16" MacBook Pro. Frequently they are next to each other on my desk, or in the same room. So when I say "Hey Siri, play such-and-such" I'd like the tune to play on the wonderful speakers in my Macbook. But Siri on my iPhone almost always responds first, and starts playing the song out of its tiny little speakers.

Is there any way to specifically tell Siri on my Macbook that I want it to respond and play music, instead of the iPhone?

I believe if you have your iPhone say face down it will default to the Mac.

I have found this to be generally true, but I don't always think to put my iPhone face down. I was hoping there was some special way to address the Siri on my Mac, so that she 'wins' instead of the iPhone. And there are times I want to talk to my iPhone; e.g., to set alarms, which I can't do on my Mac.
