How do I get HA to voice announce events?

You need Alexa Media Player
This integration will allow you to call a service that does TTS for whatever text you send it. I use it to announce when my wife gets home if I’m in the study at the back of the house. I mean, I say ‘announce’ but the message is “she’s home. Panic and tidy!”
This is basically what I'm looking for! Thanks for the link to the Alexa Media player, do you happen to know of a write up for putting the HA / TTS / AMP pieces together?
