Hello, me again. Still very interested in this project, still doing my research to figure out how best to set it up.

Mopidy actually has an addon for youtube, specifically Mopidy-Youtube this works great as a youtube music player or other audio purposes.

Using the MPD addon in HA you can click 'Add Stream' and paste a youtube url, prefixed by 'yt:'.

You can play any youtube video you want in your automations/scripts using this method. There's also a way to do it bypassing Mopidy and just using the Snapcast integration but I'm guessing that'll confuse all of your meta streams you have setup via snapcast-autoconfig and/or any other streams you currently have playing.
