I have a JBL bluetooth speaker hooked up to a wall mounted tablet, but unfortunately, the speaker turns itself off if it doesn’t get any input for 10 minutes - even when its plugged into a power source.
So wanted to play a barely hearable sound every 9 min, in order to prevent it from turning off.
Here’s what I tried:
- alias: sound_ping
trigger:
- platform: time
minutes: '/9'
seconds: 00
action:
- service: notify.notifier_name
data:
method: 'alarm'
message: 'FILE1'
LANouncer is running on the tablet and the file is stored there, btw. I actually named notifier “notifier_name”, in case you’re wondering.
