However, the YAML is being rejected by HA…
Error loading /config/configuration.yaml: mapping values are not allowed here
…at the name: line. I’ve tried without the quotes and no dice. It doesn’t like it.
I found this… Music Player Daemon (MPD) - Home Assistant

OK - managed to get it playing music via Music Assistant seeing the speaker under the MPD… but I’m not having much luck with the final step, which is getting HA to play an announcement to it as a result of an automation.
