Hi

I have an automation that plays a local mp3 file containing many hours of white noise on the google home display.

      - service: media_player.play_media
        data:
          entity_id: media_player.lounge_display
          media_content_id: https://homeassistant.somethingsomething/alex_sleep.mp3
          media_content_type: audio/mp3

When the baby has stopped sleeping I turn off the music

      - service: media_player.media_stop
        entity_id: media_player.lounge_display

The problem is that the google home display doesn’t go back to it’s clock it just stays black for quite a while. I’d like it to go back to the clock. Does anyone know how?

Call media_player.turn_off instead.
