Enhancement Request - Retrieve Volume Setting #94

Open CharlesMahan opened 2 years ago

CharlesMahan commented 2 years ago

I've setup a Node-Red flow to run every night to call the light_off service on my fully kiosk screen entities and it works great, but the next morning when I wake them back up, the volume settings have mysteriously been raised back up. Not really sure what's triggering that. When I create diagnostic flows to replicate the same service calls it doesn't seem to do it, but it got me thinking. If I could retrieve the current volume setting, I could write a flow to check it periodically and set it back down to 0 if it's not currently 0.

So that's the enhancement request. A number entity like the Screensaver Brightness entity perhaps but for volume.

Thanks in advance.

That would make things easier indeed. Currently I need to get the volume of the HA Companion app entity for the same device. Much easier if provided by FK directly. There's even a FK service already to adjust the volume...
