Is it possible to do TTS to Nest Doorbell

Has anyone done tts to their Nest doorbell? I have it configured in HA, and can do actions based on it, but I don’t see a way to reference the speaker in the doorbell. I don’t see anything under media.xxxxx for it.

Thanks,
Steve

I am also looking for this. Apparently, it is not possible as the doorbell does not expose a media_player entity like the Google Hub.

Honestly, Google Home Automation is disappointing on a good day. Unfortunately, I discovered Home Assistant after being neck deep in the Google Assistant platform, doorbell, lock, cameras, and thermostat, so now I am just living with the consequences of my decisions…lol…if you are not super deep in the Google Assistant rabit hole, get out of it.

Have a look at this thread about recommended doorbells: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/doorbell-recommendations/315527/12

If I ever figure out a hack or workaround for the Nest Doorbell, I will let you know.
