Area Card: Add Media-Player state (playing) to alarm class or as control

[ChristophCaina]

Hi, I would like to discuss the option to add a media player information / control to the Areal-Card...

Option 1:
Show an alarm icon if a media player in the area is playing

Option 2:
Add a controll to pause/stop a playing mediaplayer (similar to switch / light)

For #‌1 you can achieve it if you make a template binary sensor, maybe with device_class: sound, or device_class: running

#‌2 has had some discussion in the past: #13948
