Hello! I was having trouble getting Google Assistant to change the setpoint on my new Centralite Pearl thermostat, connected via zigbee2mqtt. I watched the events, setting a single setpoint, but the device has two setpoints, and it would not update either. I’m not sure if this is an oversight in Home Assistant to not apply a request from Google Assistant based on the current mode setting, or something else. Either way, I needed a fix! I tried a generic thermostat coupled with the climate_group HACS integration, but no luck. Finally I realized I could ‘intercept’ the google_assistant_command event and call climate.set_temperature based on this. Sadly it won’t fix the assistant not telling you the setpoint, but it’s something.
