Love the new GUI and the introduction of Trigger on any state thanks.
However I do have an issue with my use case.
The entity is a google home speaker
I have the message to display as: {{ states('media_player.living_room_speaker') }} : {{ state_attr('media_player.living_room_speaker', 'media_artist') }} - {{ state_attr('media_player.living_room_speaker', 'media_title') }}
I have the Trigger on any state turned on, and the auto-hide after set to 8 seconds
It works great and changes every time the track changes I see the state, the artist and the song.
here is a radio station playing:
I cant just use state = playing as it doesnt knwo when the music changes, hence the "Trigger on any state" works great.
..the issue I have is that when the radio station isnt playing a song (such as when they are talking), the media_artist says "none" and due to the change it pops up again. Also if my google home gets a message, it pops up again a few time like these:
Ideally i would like to still have conditions please if possible? This way it would only come up when "trigger on and state change" AND media_artist not = "none"
Thank you again for your hard work and quick fixes.
