How to trigger play function on NVIDIA Shield?

Hi,

I want to trigger the play (toggle play & pause) action on the NVIDIA Shield with a switch on my desk.

When I select the shield within the automation I only have the option to power on/off/toggle. When I attack the Shield to the dashboard I have can see and use the controls like play, pause and so on.

How can I solve that with an automation?

I’ll answer my question for myself:

action:
  - service: media_player.media_play_pause
    target:
      entity_id: media_player.shield
    data: {}

Just works! =)
