How to configure "button bar" to control home audio system

I have three media_player entities configured and instead of using the existing interface an controlling 1 item at a time I would like to set up a trigger? that causes an automation to perform the first steps.

What I would like to achieve for an interface is what is commonly called a button bar in web development and similar to a “glance” in lovelace.

The thing I do no understand is if there is a component that would allow it operate as a button using an icon as the image. So clicking the “button” would trigger the automation. I tried using input_boolean but when I configure a “glance” to show just the icon, clicking the icon causes the “detail popup” to show, where I want it to directly start an automation.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks
