Bose SoundTouch Bridge

Plug-in

Make the six preset buttons play radio again

Bose SoundTouch Bridge watches physical preset presses on your local network and starts the radio URL assigned to each button. It writes local preset markers, sends audio through the speaker's UPnP player and can publish events to MQTT, a messaging system used by home automation tools.

Run it as a Home Assistant add-on or a Docker container and leave that host on. Use a direct HTTP audio stream; protected streams and playlists may need a separate relay, and the MQTT timestamp sensor has an unresolved owner report.
