Yes, it is still working. Not all sounds in the Alexa sound library work, but AFAIK all the one’s listed on the AMP wiki link above are working.

I know this is an old thread, however one of the projects I’ve been working on is an alarm system that notifies the entire house if a specific camera detects motion for 5 seconds or more during a specific time when the system is armed (nighttime/sleepy time). Whereas I’m not a real big fan of Alexa (she who should not be named) and will eventually move to a more ‘off cloud’ solution. This particular YAML does a pretty good job and could be of use to some. I have it Max out the volume on all Alexa’s and run the sound sequence twice and then revert back to a 75% volume level. Again I hope this of some use to those who seek it.
