Automation for adjusting multiple volumes not working?

Cupertino, February 26, 2024

Hi, I have a couple of homepods and airplay (sonos) speakers and I'm trying to run an automation in the middle of the night to adjust the volume of each speaker to the volume I want, so in the morning when it runs "radio scene" automatically, these are evenly synchronized. For this I use a shortcut automation and even have a "repeat 3 times" with 30 seconds in between to give it some time, but it doesn't seem to work. If I autoplay the manual automation (test) it works but it doesn't seem to work by itself, at least in the morning the volumes are as I left them at night before bed. Question: Is there a reliable way to set volumes with multi-speaker automation? Also, using the in-scene volume slider for the radio doesn't *always* seem to work, sometimes it does, other times some of the speakers just keep the previous volume. It seems that HK has a very short timeout to set the volumes if the song is not playing. Thanks.
