The exact same message, changing only the target field, works fine here.
I don't have a Boom; but I thought they were the same as the other players
in this respect.
I'm out of ideas right now. Can anybody else replicate this?

Yes, I tried control of Favorites first. When I was unsuccessful, I tried
poth Play and Pause. Here is my favorites meesage call:
xap-header
{
v=13
hop=1
uid=FF.0ADA0783:0000
class=slim.button
source=ersp.HouseBot.music-server
target=ersp.slimserver.music-server:boom
}
button.command
{
button=favorites
}
Am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks!
