As for now I dont know any easy solution.

Soundboard can by event card cast to Sonos speaker, but to Google Home there is no native/event card solution (yet).

Have heard that you can setup a server with desired file, and somehow trigger that url (?) from Soundboard event card, which Google Home responds to - but I am not familiar with this solution (as it is too advanced for me…). Sorry.

You may want to look at this thread:

> I have seen the option of casting an URL to chromecast - but I prefer not to make an webserver for this purpose (and as I know its not possible to make an URL to a place on the Homey device) So still looking for an more elegant solution. Its supposed to be a smarthome - not solely an advanced home wink Hopefully Homey will support external speakers output natively in not to long time… By the way: I got to learn that Sonos app has the flow option: «Play a soundboard sound». Too bad Sonos does…

Soundboard event card «send to Google Home device» is on my wish list…
