Updated Requirements

sonos_cloud now requires 2022.3.0 or newer (including beta releases).

New Features

This release adds support for the Media Browser and Media Source items. This allows selection of local media files (e.g. a doorbell audio clip) from the UI and use of media_source URLs in media_player.play_media calls.

The latter will allow controlling volume of TTS messages using media_source URLs:

service: media_player.play_media
data:
  entity_id: media_player.kitchen
  media_content_id: media-source://tts/cloud?message=Hello there friend
  media_content_type: music
  extra:
    volume: 35

Additionally, the "Play" button/service has been enabled for media players. This is primarily to ensure the media browser icon is displayed on Media Control cards in the frontend. Hitting this button will simply replay the previous notification (if any). Note: This feature may be removed in a future release.
