The new Symfonisk gen2 sound remote is pretty cool. Full media control with six extra controls using the two extra buttons with dots on them. I personally call them dot-buttons, so that is what I am talking about in the title. However, mine came with a firmware version that does not create an event in ZHA for these buttons. This was firmware version 0x00010012. As of 11th of April there is a newer firmware version available (0x01000035). For anyone interested, you can find the updates on this webpage: RELEASE NOTES.
I followed this excellent guide (ZHA OTA Firmware Update / Upgrade) by user victorigualada on how to update the firmware if you don’t know how.
Using the ZHA blueprint by James Crook (ZHA - Ikea Symfonisk sound controller GEN2 (the square one)) as the base and the naming convention from the Z2M blueprint (Z2M - IKEA Symfonisk Gen2 [E2123] Media Control), now I only had to figure out which events to listen to. After figuring out which events were called throught the event listerener, I just had to make sure I use the ones that make sense and avoid double triggering. So this is the resulting blueprint:

This the first time creating a blueprint based on events myself, so while I did test it, I cannot guarantee it works perfectly. So please let me know if you have any problems or feedback.
Enjoy!
