I think this might be more of a limitation in the core media_player component. From /components/media_player/ docs:

media_content_type: A media type. Must be one of music, tvshow, video, episode, channel or playlist.

It would be useful to have "game" and "app" added to media_content_type for things like this.

Yep correct^^ There isnt a more accurate option in the core as of now. Everything will be show up as music.

I don't know how reliable this is as a whole; I've noticed that Movies via Plex via Apple TV component also default to 'Music'.
