When the announce parameter is enabled, Spotify media_players paused before Chime TTS notifications, however they are not resumed once the notification ends.

Spotify media_players can only play audio from Spotify and cannot play arbitrary files (neither local files nor remote URLs) - so they cannot currently be used as a media_player for Chime TTS notification playback. However, it would be useful to have them be paused/resume before/after Chime TTS notification playback.

My idea is to include them in the list of target media_players sent to the chime_tts.say service, and have Chime TTS identify them as Spotify media_players and handle the pause/resume (when announce is true).

Describe the solution you'd like

Spotify media_players should automatically resume playback once the notification from Chime TTS is complete.

Maybe not relevant to this feature, but instead of pausing Spotify I fade the volume down and back up:

After using chime_tts.say_url to generate the audio file I turn down the volume on my music (using another script to fade it down over 1 second) and then play the file, waiting until the playback devices are done, and then fading the music back up after the playback is complete.

That said, I play all of my voice notifications through Google minis and all of my music via Google Chromecast audios, so they are separate devices.

You should already be able to do this in chime_tts.say by setting announce: true.
