I'm looking for a foss self hosted music service that will let me play music from my computer, my phone, and home assistant all while remembering where i was in the song and where i was in the playlist. Ideally it would be as simple as hitting pause on one and play on the other.

I hope someone else knows a better way to do this because it would appear it is somewhat possible but not easy.

Subsonic servers, such as navidrome, offer the ability to "SyncPlayQueue" via api to specific players, but in the case of navidrome that does not included the web player or music assistant for home assistant (the later is an assumption as i was unable to find a setting to enable it).

For those who don't care about home assistant they just need to find a player on the devices they want to transition music too and from that supports the feature.

For those who use home assistant and want to listen to music across devices you can transfer queue from within the music assistant player to a device added as a player or the app by picking "this device". That only works if you've been playing music from your phone on a smart speaker, the music queue being played via web isn't visible from the app and vice vera. It might be possible to set a web browser as a player to interact with but i imagine that would be a fragile setup at best.

Have you tried Funkwhale? I think it supports the Subsonic API, but not sure if that specific feature is included.
