Read Echo Player state to trigger bluethooth connection

Hi all,

I actually try to do one of the example screnarios of the Amazon Echo Controll Binding:

“Automatic turn on your amplifier and connect echo with bluetooth if the echo plays music”

I use a rule that is activates once the state of the player item changes to ON or PLAY.
Unfortunatly the player Item does not recieve an update when I use a voice command spoken to the echo. The item state stays on PAUSE although the echo plays music or radio already.

For me its seems like that somehow the item does not update with the actual state. Any ideas how to solve this?

Thanks

Anyone an idea?
