TV won't turn off with "Action" chip button that turns off area

1

I am using a mushroom chip card on my dashboard that turns off all devices in a specific area (in this case the area is “living room”. Works perfectly for lights, heating etc but I can’t get it to turn off the TV.

When I press the button, I can see that the TV Media card briefly says “off” but then it just changes back to “on”.

Here is the code from the card:

type: custom:mushroom-chips-card
chips:
  - type: back
  - type: weather
    entity: weather.forecast_home
    tap_action:
      action: none
    show_conditions: true
  - type: action
    tap_action:
      action: call-service
      service: homeassistant.turn_off
      target:
        area_id: living_room
      data: {}
    icon: mdi:power
    icon_color: red
alignment: justify

I tried adding the area “living room” and also adding the TV entity as well but it still doesn’t work…

type: custom:mushroom-chips-card
chips:
  - type: back
  - type: weather
    entity: weather.forecast_home
    tap_action:
      action: none
    show_conditions: true
  - type: action
    tap_action:
      action: call-service
      service: homeassistant.turn_off
      target:
        area_id: living_room
        entity_id: media_player.sony_tv_2
      data: {}
    icon: mdi:power
    icon_color: red
alignment: justify

can you turn_off your TV with this entity in any way ?
