Alexa streaming Music on HA Media Devices

I am trying to stream music trough Alexa on my Teufel Raumfeld Connector. I’ve managed to connect the Teufel Raumfeld Connector to my HA and also Alexa to HA. All my HA Devices are showing up in my Alexa App. The only problem is that I can’t select my Raumfeld Connector as an Output in my Alexa App. That already surprised me because I can select the Raumfeld Connector in my Spotify App.

Nevertheless, I am looking for a workaround.

My first thought was that I create a “Home Assistant” streaming instance with the Output Device set to the Raumfeld Connector. After that, I should can select the Home Assistant streaming instance in my Alexa App.
I didn’t find any information on how to do that. The only information I found was streaming Playlists through a script from HA on the actual Alexa.
But I want the opposite. Streaming music from Alexa on my Raumfeld Connector.

I hope I didn’t confuse you too much with my “Questen/Problem explanation”. If anyone has an idea on how to solve my issue, I would be glad.

  • I’m not using HA Cloud. I’ve manually linked Alexa to my HA using the “DIY” method.

I’m not familiar with the Teufel device you have asked about, so I may be misunderstanding part of your question.

Amazon Echo devices do not output over LAN, so you are limited to wired (only certain models) or Bluetooth connections. It looks like certain Connector models would require a dongle to be able to act as a receiver and accept BT streams from Amazon Echo devices.

Once your Echo device can connect to your Teufel device as a BT speaker/receiver, you can use the Alexa Media Player custom integration’s services to control how and what your echo devices play.

I tried using the same feature as Sonos. They are Wireless speakers. If you say „Alexa Play in Kitchen, it plays the music trough the sonos box without using any wired Connection between alexa and sonos.

And also: I can play music on the Teufel Raumfeld, even without the App. The connector is showing up in my Spotify. I also implemented the connector to my HA. (I only can Pay and Pause)

I’m hoping for a Solution to use the Alexa as a Library(to select the Playlist/Title) and then playing it in my Teufel.

If I can’t connect the Raumfeld directly to the Alexa, I’m hoping to use HA as a middleman because I implemented both Devices in HA
