[Help needed]: home app speaker tile

How can we help?

Is it possible to create a tile in a home app with a speaker icon and only volume control? I only managed to create a television service with the speaker icon + lightbulb as a linked device, but I would need this state without a switch. Volume only. IMG_2896

Any more details?

If this is specific to some hardware or specific software version, please explain here.

Any code or functions to add?

Sorry for the delay, I haven't tried this approach ever and frankly speaking I have no clue how to remove the power button.

The smart speaker (not the speaker) service is dedicated for airplay speakers, but can be used, however no volume controls neither media control buttons are working, only to toggle play/pause state. Despite the above the volume can be controlled with scenes and Siri.

This is a limit set by Apple, not our plugin.
