Samsung R1 speaker not discovered

Configuration
1

I have a Samsung R1 wireless speaker, also referred to as WAM1500, that is not discovered in Home Assistant core-2021.10.6.

This speaker uses SSDP for discovery.
I can see the packets being sent out in Wireshark:

I have SSDP enabled in configuration.yaml (I don’t use default_config):

ssdp:

I have rebooted HA several times, the speaker is working and controlled fine via the Samsung Multiroon app.
There is nothing ignored or disabled on the Configuration > Integrations page.

I tried this custom integration:

But I got errors that samsung_multi_room integration could not be found, despite having saved the custom integration python file in the right location.

2021-10-27 16:52:56 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.config] Platform error: media_player - Integration 'samsung_multi_room' not found.

I vaguely remember that this used to pop up as discovered integration, when I first started playing with HA back in March. Now that I moved to a different house and I’m seriously picking up HA, it’s not showing up anymore.
Any tips on getting this speaker integrated?

Any tips would be appreciated :blush:

HA and the speaker are in the same network and HA is running via docker compose in the host network.

Thanks!

I had the same issue and this worked for me:

  1. copy files to custom_components
  2. Restart HA
  3. Add the configuration to your configuration.yaml
  4. Restart HA

This fork has been archived.
I’ve added it, but all I get on the card is a power button and that doesn’t do anything.

I’m also having the same issue where I got that card with a power button, but that’s where it ends.

If anyone finds there way to this thread when searching for a way to integrate there Samsung speakers to Home Assistant, I would like to refer to my custom integration that I have finally released in a non alfa version.

Please check: Samsung Wireless Audio Integration for more info.
