Have echo play state trigger ISY event?

[beninsteon]

Hi,

 

The Amazon Echo API says that the device announces its Audio Player status to interested skills. I'm wondering if it would be possible to use that data to trigger an ISY program?

 

Eg -

 

If Music is playing

   then

      run network resource to turn amp On

   else

      run network resource to turn amp Off

 

If the ISY could watch the audio player status then I could use a state variable to take care of the rest....

 

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

 

Ben
