Hey, @hugalafutro. Right, the reason integrations cannot auto-discover the devices is because your VPN prevents them from mDNS lookup on your local network. What you are asking for is reasonable and we already have an open feature request for it :) Please follow it here - https://github.com/leikoilja/ha-google-home/issues/340
Describe the bug
I recently connected the whole machine on which HA runs inside a docker to a VPN via mullvad according to this link: https://mullvad.net/en/help/wireguard-and-mullvad-vpn/ After HA restart Both this integration, and Google Cast integration detected no devices. For Google Cast integration I was able to work around this by supplying IP addresses of the cast devices, but did not find a way to do the same for this integration.
I was wondering if there is a way to do tell the IPS to your integration? My google devices are on static IPs. The logs suggest the devices are found, but not their ips. I suspect this is because when I'm connected via the vpn, local name resolution does not work.
