Covers of platforms group and template can't be exposed to voice assistants
The problem
My system has several cover entities that are exposed to voice assistants. Some of the covers are actual devices and some are groups or templates defined in configuration.yaml.
As of 2023.5.0b0, the manually defined covers (of platform: group and platform: template) do not appear in the list of entities that can be exposed to voice assistants. Examples of the affected entities are included below.
I assume this is a bug or breaking change in a component like assist_pipeline and not related to the cover integration itself. If I have categorized incorrectly, please edit.
What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?
2023.5.0b0
What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?
2023.4.6
What type of installation are you running?
