Home Assistant Time_Pattern based Cuckoo Clock
If you have read about my Smart Home before, you know that I have speakers wired into most of the house for a Multi-Room audio experience. I use Chrome Cast Audios to play Text to Speech notifications throughout the house from Home Assistant. The voice is affectionately called Joanna (The Amazon Polly Voice).
I’ll assume you have your Home Assistant server set up and your Chrome Cast audio connected to some sort of speaker system. The Cuckoo Clock automation is located on my Repo here: https://github.com/CCOSTAN/Home-Assis...
I have all the Cuckoo sounds on my GitHub repo and you can either download them or continue to pull them from my repo. Both will work fine.
This automation is pretty self-contained and works really nice. You will have to adjust the media player options to point to your particular Chrome Cast of course.

👋 About this channel: My name is Carlo. I've been running Home Assistant for a BUNCH of years. Almost from the very beginning actually. This channel is focused on bringing what I have implemented at my own house to you so that you can bring it to your house. The channel will be a mix of reviews, tutorials, and inspiration. It is a companion to my GitHub site that holds all the code for my Smart Home and my main site where I keep the more in-depth technical writings. I hope you will enjoy the videos and consider subscribing.
