Hi there, Long time stalker, first time user. I used to be able to tell my Smart Clock to play a sleepcast on the speaker. Can Home Assistant do that? Can I open an app, that is probably on my phone, and play something specific on a smart speaker?
If you are able to integrate the speaker with Home Assistant than many things are possible. For example you can manually or programmatically select through the Home Assistant App to play any local media on a smart speaker that is integrated as a “media_player”.
It is a bit trickier to setup, but also possible to play Spotify playlists or specific tracks via an automation using spotcast. I came here searching for a way to integrate Headspace into Home Assistant, but haven’t found any solutions for that yet.
