Could not find device with name ...

See original GitHub issue

Anybody know why I can’t send a playlist to my Google Home? I use this service:

uri: spotify:playlist:1gtrESi2ZEgPE8hEMd9Oka
entity_id: media_player.gh_servicio

It detects the friendly name of the entity, but i get this error and it does not work 😦

I thought that if I report a problem, I’m helping a little bit… But yes, and you are absolutely right! I will definitely stop using it. Cheers.

Try new release and if open source pisses you off @stefancvetkovic you should either help out and fix things or stop using it. People are putting their precious spare time into sharing things for FREE
