Use Siri to Change Volume #46

Hi, I have been looking for a way to tell Siri (on my HomePod Mini) to turn up or down the volume on the Yamaha Receiver. This plugin works perfectly using the Home app, where adjusting the "fan speed" changes the receiver volume. However, trying all kinds of versions of commands to use my voice to tell siri to change the volume (fan speed) or set it to a certain level, I can not get it to work. Siri will say she is on it or something similar, but will never succeed in changing the volume.

Is this a HomeKit limitation or am I missing something about this can be done?

Sorry, a few additional permutations of words, and I got it to work. For anyone curious, this works for mer: Hei, Siri, set the living room TV to 40 percent.
