I’m using the say()
command to send speech to Google Home devices in the home. This works fine for Google Home Nest Hub (with screen) that we have and a Sonos Beam, but doesn’t work for the 3x Lenovo Smart Clock Essential devices we have.
I’m using the Google TTS service and have tried a number of different voices. Eg.
say("Just testing", "googletts:enAUNewsE", "chromecast:chromecast:bedside_3")
When the command runs, the device makes the “announcement chirp” which normally preceeds the voice message - but then nothing. For the same devices, I can stream audio from Spotify mobile apps so Chromecasting in general seems to work for those.
Is this a bug in OH? How can I start to debug this?
