Apparently the CEO of OpenAI/ChatGPT is a hard-core prepper. Not concerning at all
Sonos is a bit spendy, so my solution is Home Assistant + Alexa media player + turning off the Echo mics + 3D-printed caps to hide the red light rings

Alexa routines accessible in home assistant?
Yup! There's a community integration you can install called Alexa Media Player. The easiest way to install it is by using HACS.

Alexa + MyQ = Announcements?
When you use https://www.home-assistant.io as your Home automation hub, you can integrate it with just about anything. For example, Alexa integration is via https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/alexa/ and having Alexa speak through automations is accomplished by using HomeAssistant Add-on https://github.com/custom-components/alexa_media_player and you can integrate myq hubs to it via https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/myq/ - Then via automations you setup you can have Alexa speak (announce) when doors are opened, closed, etc. for any state change. You can also use the Alexa integration to have Alexa voice routines invoke scenes which are tied to Home assistant scripts, etc.. to open, close garage doors and so much more. HomeAssistant is all about integrations, see https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/

Ask HN: Video Doorbell Without Subscription?
My understanding (again haven't tried this personally) is that there are integrations for Unifi Protect that will allow it to chime. There are doorbell specific events and services listed on this page [1] and an example [2].

About to give up on UniFi Protect.
Sure thing. I haven't thought to update the Unifi Protect integration in HA until now so I'm still running version 0.8.0 (January 28 release). I'll have to update it to 0.8.9 (link to Github repo) and see what breaks. HA is currently up-to-date.
