Music settings

Hi everyone, I’ve installed various components, including several Atom Echoes, but I can’t get them to send commands to my Sonos Era speaker. Here’s the situation: Home Assistant (HA) detects the speaker, and I can start radio stations from the dashboard without any issues. However, when I try using voice commands, it always replies that it didn’t understand.

Additionally, I’d like to use an external hard drive to listen to my music over Wi-Fi, again using voice commands. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!"


Look into music assistant

Which STT provider are you using?
What command are you giving?
Type the same command into UI, does it work there?

"Sorry, I’m a total beginner. I’ve installed Home Assistant on the internal SSD of my Beelink SER9, but I’d like to use an external hard drive for my media. I installed Music Assistant, but it doesn’t recognize the external drive—could you help me with the commands to set it up?
Also, while my Sonos speakers are recognized and I can play radio from the dashboard, my Atom Echo devices don’t seem to understand any voice commands (like volume, play, or stop). If you could help me step-by-step, I’d be really grateful!
