While i do agree, this is not realistic in any way. They cannot change stuff like that or it might be 1 or 2 years later before the product sees the light of day.

I would have prefered to keep the led and speaker also, but these are the products that are gonna come (right now), so pick it or leave it is al we can do.

But i did find a sort of solution: [[Vote] Feature App: Homesh: Connect 2023 to Old Homey for Led, Speaker, Zwave(satellite) and network resource - Apps - Homey Community Forum](https://community.homey.app/t/vote-feature-app-homesh-connect-2023-to-old-homey-for-led-speaker-zwave-satellite-and-network-resource/70369)

Already integrated Soundboard in the Homesh Apps:

@Marcel_Visser do you have a router with USB-stick or NAS or UPnP server?  
You can use that to play the same sound-files on your speakers.
