Alarm clock for bedroom?

But I never did automation from HA because it was so much more convenient to do alarms and schedules through that software, and otherwise use voice control through Alexa

i think I am a bit confused about two things:

1. How does HomeAssistant work with multiple voice assistant sources? Sonos Era 100 supports Alexa, but it doesn’t support Google Assistant. I have a primarily Google environment (with Google Assistant in another room). Is it “ok” to have multiple voice assistant sources on the same HomeAssistant network?
2. If you use Sonos to set up alarms, can you integrate… backwards from it? I.e. ensure that Philips Hue lights are lighting-up on the basis of the alarm time set up in Sonos? (like you would be able to use Android alarm as input for HA)

There is also the option to go for Sonos One (2017) or Sonos Roam (2021), which do have Google Assistant support.

Have you tried the Sonos voice assistant yet?

No, but I am confident it is bad. Doing voice assistant is a technologically complex task, and Sonos is far from being well-positioned to do it properly, integrating with all random devices.
