Spotify Morning Alarm

Configuration
1

Hi, I’ve tried making an automation to play a Spotify playlist in the morning on my laptop, but it hasn’t worked so far. It’s coupled with a Philips Hue light, the idea being that I’d like the sound to go off a bit later if the light doesn’t manage to wake me up. Here’s what I currently have:

alias: Bedroom Wake Up
description: ''
trigger:
  - platform: time
    at: input_datetime.wake_up
condition: []
action:
  - service: hue.activate_scene
    data:
      transition: 60
    target:
      entity_id: scene.bedroom_concentrate
  - service: input_number.set_value
    data:
      value: 0
    target:
      entity_id: input_number.bedroom_state
  - delay:
      hours: 0
      minutes: 5
      seconds: 0
      milliseconds: 0
  - service: media_player.select_source
    data:
      source: DESKTOP-0VVP0U1
    target:
      entity_id: media_player.spotify_tsuki
  - service: media_player.play_media
    target:
      entity_id: media_player.spotify_tsuki
    data:
      media_content_id: spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DX4PP3DA4J0N8
      media_content_type: spotify://playlist
    metadata:
      title: Nature Sounds
      thumbnail: https://i.scdn.co/image/ab67706f0000000325679ec48f09bd70884d4184
      media_class: playlist
      children_media_class: track
      navigateIds:
        - {}
        - media_content_type: spotify://current_user_playlists
          media_content_id: current_user_playlists
        - media_content_type: spotify://playlist
          media_content_id: spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DX4PP3DA4J0N8
mode: single

The first time it failed I had a guess that since the player on the laptop isn’t active for the whole night it couldn’t just start playing, so I added the media_player.select_source bit.

Looking through the logbook this morning seems like it just paused it instead of playing:

At this point I don’t know what I’m missing, can anyone give me a hand with this. Thanks.

Update: I’m even more confused. I haven’t changed anything, yet it worked this morning.

You can set me as your morning alarm.

Resurrecting a dead topic, since the August 2024 update this has been giving me lots of trouble.

Here’s the full configuration for the automation:

alias: "Bedroom: Wake Up"
description: ""
trigger:
  - platform: time
    at: input_datetime.wake_up_time
condition: []
action:
  - if:
      - condition: zone
        entity_id: person.tsuki
        zone: zone.home
    then:
      - metadata: {}
        data:
          transition: 600
        target:
          entity_id: scene.bedroom_concentrate
        enabled: true
        action: hue.activate_scene
      - delay:
          hours: 0
          minutes: 10
          seconds: 0
          milliseconds: 0
        enabled: true
  - metadata: {}
    data:
      source: TSUKI-LAPTOP
    target:
      entity_id: media_player.spotify_tsuki
    action: media_player.select_source
  - data:
      media_content_id: >-
        https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DX4PP3DA4J0N8?si=049e17d7b54843ba
      media_content_type: playlist
    target:
      entity_id: media_player.spotify_tsuki
    action: media_player.play_media
mode: single

The last step has started throwing an error:
Error: Entity media_player.spotify_tsuki does not support this service.
In some rare cases it works, but most mornings it just fails with that error.
I’ve noticed that if I try to create another media_player.play_media action, the UI doesn’t let me select the Spotify player as an entity. Has something changed in the Spotify integration?
