Samsung Smart TV integrations expose a 0 - 100 scale volume slider that is not functional with my TV - Samsung S95B (2022). Calling the volume_{up, down} services on them works fine, only the slider setting does not get applied.
The media player automaiton tries to set a volume explicitly if possible, so it fails on my TV. I worked this around by simply always calling the volume_{up,down} services in the blueprint.
Not sure if this is a bug for you, for hass or for Samsung to solve. Can we have a toggle for disabling explicit volume control and only using the up / down actions?
