Audio Notification Issue / Question

[whoismoses (Eric)]

Hello everyone, I think this is the correct place to post this.

I am having a problem with most of my configurations that involve an “Audio Notification”. Basically what is happening is I have The Smart Home Security Monitor (under Safety & Security) setup to play on my HEOS speakers which door / window has opened. This part works great, however about 1 out of 5 times this happens, it also briefly resumes playing music that I might have been listening to previously (think the music I was listening to last night and now it is morning). I don’t want the music to resume and I have the option set to off for “Resume currently playing music after notification”. I do have it temporarily changing the volume.

I should also note that I have the MediaRederer SmartApp installed to enable the HEOS speakers to integrate.

Tip : Please, just install one time the MediaRenderer Connect from the phone, If you have…

Does anyone else have this issue? If so, what kind of speakers?
