Chromecast Integration and 'Play Track' actions

🛎️ Get Help

Hi All - using C8 Pro and Chromecast Integration (beta)

Working on my device page, I can play a local sound - doorbell - on my Google Nest Minis.
image. :slight_smile:

But when, within Rule Machine, I try to make this actionable, I can't.
With the option 'Send Message: Notify, Speak, Log...' , I can send a TTS to these devices but there is no option to 'Play Track' action. Have looked within 'Control Music Player, Volume, Sounds' but no help there.

Am I missing something? Any way around?

As always, many thanks
Bryan
