Yes, but I run VLC Thing myself and it's temperamental. One little change is doesn't like and the cast function stops working. You can get it working again easy enough, but it's a pain. I'm looking forward to native so I can shut down VLC Thing.
It should be close, I think.
My personal preference is Google Assistant Relay (version 1 only one working with @ogiewon 's HE driver right now). Assistant Relay not only gives you TTS, but you can also send silent commands to anything that Google Assistant can control or you can send a silent command and get a verbal response. I'm using it to control my August lock and I used it to control my Halloween automations recently. It's a very valuable tool to me.
