I’m using the harmony integration with activities.. but couldn’t see an obvious way to intercept the pause button being pressed… is that possible?

The Harmony pause button is going to pause the activity (media player). I don't think hubitat can get that button. But you can use those those bulb and outlet buttons if you work hard enough. Those seem like a natural for the OP use case.
