Closed markrharvey closed 3 years ago

markrharvey commented 3 years ago

i currently have 3 sonos speakers and a group of alexas about 5 and a google home is there any way of adding all of them into one group in a card as it keeps adding them but i cannot toggle them in the group the toggles do not work

I'm having the same issue, no matter what combination of speakers I specify as entities within the speaker_group, whether google home minis, sonos, combination of both, etc... none of the toggles work. All are media_player devices, they work individually if I specify them as the primary entity, but not as speaker_group entities. Can't find any info online about this.

Hey, No, it's not possible to use more than one multiroom system in a speaker group setup. It's technically not possible, they are different implementations and aren't cross compatible.

Is it possible to create separate groups for each type then because I tried to create a group with just Alexa devices and that didn’t work

It seems like it only works with Sonos

@markrharvey Yes, it works with the supported platforms listed under this section in the documentation.

Hey sorry for being a nuisance but I can’t get it to work for my Alexa devices

As you can see I have music playing on the master device and it’s not coming up in the thing and none of the toggles work however they work with the 2 Sonos speaker I’ve got

This is the yaml code for the card

type: custom:mini-media-player entity: media_player.marks_room hide: power: true speaker_group: platform: sonos show_group_count: true entities:
