Hey guys, after using HiFiBerryOS for a while I'm really loving it. The only issue I'm facing is the fact my speaker can't be added to my Homekit home. It does show up when searching for new devices to add, but it then fails to setup. Is there something I can do to fix this?

HiFiBerry team There is no Homekit support at all. I guess, it's simply listed because it provide an Airplay service.

wkrt Actually I was able to add it to my Homekit home, just like other devices. Maybe this changed in 20220228?

matt-uk Hey. So do people have this working? Like the OP Homekit shows my Amp100s when searching but when I add them it fails.
I appreciate the hifiberry do not claim Homekit compatibility, but if AirPlay2 is working I thought it would also allow homekit as a smart speaker device.
This is probably the only think that is preventing me to building multiple amps and beocreate speakers instead of using BlueSound amps and speakers.
Is this on the roadmap or has anyone a workaround?
Thanks

matt-uk Thanks - that does the job - no idea why that would make a difference but I am very happy it is working.
