Just updated to 2.10.0 and noticed that when I click music assistant from the home assistant side menu, MA now takes up the full browser window, so to get back to home assistant, I have to hit the back button on the browser, was that intended ?
IIrc, previously you had both the HA and MA menu’s on the left hand side, I can now see the toggle so you can choose which (if any) to display. Definite improvement.!
One other thing, doesnt seem to affect anything, but a couple of oddities with squeezelite players.
First is this:-
Not sure why the lounge player has airplay and sendspin twice, with one entry on each greyed out.
Also, if you restart the MA addon, the names of my squeezelite players in HA get changed to ‘unknown [mac address]’ (They are still fine in MA).
It also changed my HA entity names until I renamed them again.
It fixes itself if you then reload the integration:-
So.. firstly… restart MA the HA names look like this:-
Then I reload the MA:-
And they fix themselves:-
Worth a bug report ?
We can’t do support requests here. Ask on Discord, GitHub Q&A or open an issue.
happened to me too. I restored a backup as I don’t understand what to rename. I’ll keep an eye out to see if this gets fixed in time 
For me, it broke all automations (announcements saying things like “The garage door is now open” and all dashboards with the media player on it. Restoring a HA backup undid the changes and all is well again.
Try reloading the integration, it might fix itself.
However, it might not, because first time it happened, it had changed my entity names as well, and I had to rename them, which was pretty trivial to do because it only affected 2 media players.
for bluetooth speakers:
Sendspin Bluetooth Bridge

You can also open MA in it’s own dedicated tab using the port number 8095: eg: http://192.168.1.##:8095
I find this is the best option for using music assistant on the computer while I am also doing work in HA.
Update to 2.10.0 forces Spotify to be setup again but the new Spotify setup in 2.10.0 is very easy to use! Thx!
Wasn’t so lucky, all 3 of my squeezelite players are offline. Rebooting, reloading didn’t have a meaningful effect. I will just stay on the old version and update a few versions from now and hope they fixed the renaming entity ids. I found a bug report for this problem on GitHub but it’s marked as closed/fixed as of 2.10. Guess not
I appreciate you messaging back. Wish you well,
Jeff
This project is so slick and works so flawlessly, I highly recommend it. I’m running it on a raspberry pi0 2W, paired to one set of BT speakers on my rooftop. Having my rooftop now part of Home Assistant (Music Assistant) instead of streaming random stuff from my phone is fantastic.

I use the SendSpin Zero and its variant; it’s easy to set up and offers better sound quality than Bluetooth, so I gradually stopped using the BT bridge.
The Sendspin Zero is exactly the kind of player I wanted for connecting to my existing hardware; I love being able to breathe new life into old gear. The Sendspin Zero got my trusty old speakers playing again and added a modern look to boot. Plus, as a bonus, it saved on plastic—I had actually been considering buying a Bluetooth speaker.
protect the environment. give life to your good old speakers. don't spend money on new equipment

Sorry… I don’t know if the problem is just me.
Is it possible that every now and then, after some update, my MusicAssistant speakers are continually removed from some assigned rooms, the entity icons are removed, the speakers disappear, or the entity or they are renamed?
Until yesterday my speaker in the bathroom was mediaplayer_bagno_2 and today it magically became mediaplayer_bagno and removed from the bathroom.
Every now and then it can be stressful… a month ago I even removed it because I couldn’t understand how the entities were managed.
After the last update (2.10.x) my player dissapeared from HA. I went to MA, players and re-exposed it to HA.
Is it just me, or do Pocket Casts integrations marking episodes as played, did not work?
Every time I mark all episodes of a podcast as heard and return to the podcast, all episodes are marked as unheard again.
Total NOOB question - so please be kind! Why when I pick a song/track to play MA only plays a short sampling of the track and then goes on to play the next track. Admittedly, I currently don’t subscribe to any streaming services.
Trying out the AI dj in Music Assistant. The selected playlist is being played, but the dj voice is never heard.
I got this in the logging:

My configuration of the Music Nerd host is as follows:
The AI DJ plugin is configured this way:
I’ve used both local LLM’s (Ollama) and Google Gemini. Both give the same error: (Artist fact) failed to generate: AI engine ‘hass/ai_task.ollama_ai_task’ is not connected. Reconnect the provider (for example Home Assistant) and retry.
I have no idea how to follow this advice. It worked when using the beta version of MA. Have removed this version of MA when 2.10 stable came out.
Anyone has a solution to correct this error or knows how to debug this problem? If necessary I can provide more logging.
