Feature request: Ring Intecom intergration

I’m using Homebridge with this plugin to get access to the switch to open the door… https://github.com/dgreif/ring/tree/main/packages/homebridge-ring#homebridge-ring

I would like to know if there’s a way to get 2-way audio working.

This feature is now available in the latest HA release 2024.4.

I had that device already added but disabled… I now enabled it and it has a lot more entities than I was expecting.

The only disadvantage is that the trigger entity is now a button instead of a lock. While this is not a big thing it makes it difficult to have a state visualisation on a dashboard based on if the lock is open or closed (even if it’s for 3 seconds). I might actually stick with the homebridge integration since I still have the Nest integration there.

Was anyone able to simulate “ring to open” functionality? Meaning when the door is ringed through the intercom it will be automatically open (perhaps not always but only if you recently entered the home zone geofence)

or between specific hours, I am trying to develop a blueprint with GPT, but haven’t tested it yet,
