But what about the internal communication in the customer premises? How do they connect to their NAS, media players, printers, TVs etc? Of course there is UPnP, DLNA and different other kinds of magic but I imagine that most home users actually configure IP addresses at some point.

The wise setup will use routed and non-routed addressing internally. This is how IPv6 was designed to handle it. Devices will be found through multicast, dynamic dns, or other means.
