Using Raspberry PI Display with Speakers

Configuration
1

Hello, i got an Beumons 10" Touchscreen for an Raspberry PI. (https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0B9RV36BB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) it is displaying one of my HA Dashboards.

The Display also have attached speakers which are working very will playing for example a live video from one of my security cameras. But how can i configure Home-Assistant to use that “Raspberry PI Station” as an “smart-speaker” which do some TTS Output etc.

Technically the Raspberry boots into RaspberryPI-OS and opens the Webbrowser in Fullscreen mode. Nothing else. Or is there maybe a Agent or something available for Linux, like it is for MacOS? ("Home Assistant.app also called HA Companion App)

Thanks!

I found this and was going to try this out on my Pi satellite

if you just want to play music you can installed squeezelite or snapclient on the Pi

Did you managed to get it working? Im have some problems autostarting vlc. if i paste /usr/bin/vlc -I telnet --telnet-password=password123! --telnet-port=9999 --telnet-host=192.168.0.1 --volume-step=100 --gain=4 to the terminal it is working, but doing exactly the same with autostart (using wayfire.ini) is not working.
