This integration uses the Mozart open API
Devices that have been tested and should work without any trouble are:
- Beolab 28
- Beosound Balance
- Beosound Emerge
- Beosound Level
- Beosound Theatre (Audio only for now)
This device can be added to your Home Assistant installation manually by using the UI or by auto-discovery.

In order to find Deezer playlist, album URIs and user IDs for Deezer flows, the Deezer website has to be accessed. When navigating to an album, the URL will look something like: "https://www.deezer.com/en/album/ALBUM_ID", and this simply needs to be converted to: album:ALBUM_ID
and the same applies to playlist, which have the format: playlist:PLAYLIST_ID
.
Additionally a Deezer user ID can be found at https://www.deezer.com/en/profile/USER_ID by selecting the active user in a web browser.
Deezer track IDs can currently only easily be found by playing the track on the device and looking at the extra state attributes, where it is shown with the key "deezer_track_id". Tracks do not have a prefix so the ID needs to be used directly.
All device triggers can be received by listinging to bangolufsen_event
event types.
Additionally the "raw" WebSocket notifications received from the device are fired as events in Home Assistant. These can be received by listening to bangolufsen_websocket_event
event types.
The "shortPress" of all the buttons, except for volume control, are available as device triggers.
If the device has a proximity sensor, then a proximity sensor binary sensor will be available in Home Assistant.
Device triggers for the Beoremote One are supported and will be available once the integration detects that it has been paired with the device. To trigger these triggers, enter the "Control" or "Light" submenu, and press any of the compatible buttons. Each button press will send a "press" and a "release" event and therefore also a "press" and a "release" device trigger.
The favourite buttons correspond to the physical favourite buttons on the device.
