    Reolink doorbell to play chime on sonos speaker?

    I've got a reolink wifi doorbell and its chime plugged into a socket in the kitchen. I'd like to also get a chime played on a speaker in an upstairs office.

    I've followed instructions to create a script that will make lights in my house flash when my Alarmo alarm is triggered. I was hoping to do something similar with my doorbell, create a script when doorbell is pressed to play a chime on a speaker but so far I'm struggling to get anywhere with it.

    Any tips or pointers as to where i might get instructions to implement such a script?

    The Sonos integration has examples of scripts to play media. It may also be possible to create an automation in the visual editor to play media (I don't have Sonos so that's speculation, install it and see what actions it exposes)

    There is a Reolink integration you can use for the doorbell press trigger, it can be configured in the visual editor, that's how I set mine up (to flash some lights on a doorbell ring).

    This is the YAML version of the trigger:

    entity_id:

    - binary_sensor.front_door_bell_visitor
    to: "on"
    trigger: state

    (Dont leave a blank line after entity ID, it wont format properly on here for me)
