Ringing the hub option

Does aqara controller support ring the hub action for 3rd party devices? some matter bridges have build in speaker, for example tapo h100 and tapo h200 matter bridges

First, you need to find out if the Tapo Hub exposes its internal speaker as a standalone native Matter device at all (many bridges only pass through child devices).

If it is exposed, how exactly is it classified? To be honest, I doubt that a dedicated device type for this currently exists.

But if you do find one, simply cross-reference that exact type with your linked Aqara Supported Device List.

I would suggest asking TP-Link/Tapo support directly if the speaker is exposed via Matter and what specific Matter Device Type classification they use for it, or if this feature is planned for a future update.

I asked them, still waiting for response, actually I’m surprised that no one ever mentioned it in matter standard, because it’s really nice and basic feature.

Tapo support responded:

It’s not supported at this moment, and I think it’s not even supported in any matter versions. Actually I’m surprised because it’s really must have feature for home alarms for matter integrations.

Edit: It’s supported in media.

So I have to ask them if in future they can expose it.

Thanks.
