Bluesound for Home Assistant (built-in integration)

About

Bluesound is a built-in integration that connects Bluesound players to Home Assistant over the local network. It adds media player control for each player, along with buttons to set and clear a sleep timer. Actions are available to join players into a group under a single master speaker and to separate a player from a group. Home Assistant can discover players on the network and offer to add them, and setup is done in the UI with the player's host and port. Repair notices appear in Settings when the older join and unjoin actions are still in use.
