Using a Remote registered in HA to send an IR command #69
Description
Helllo
I already have a Broadlink IR Blaster registered in Home Assistant.
When you learn a command you always have to specify an device name (arbitrary) so that HA can support multiple IR targets.
However, when I import the Broadlink Remote into UC Remote 3 and I try to send a command, I cannot specify a device, hence on HA side there will be an exception that no device is provided (see below). Am I missing something? Or is this a bug?
Thanks
