My experiment with Voice Assistant has come to an impass. After a restart, it works great for a command or two, recognising my custom wake word (“Hey, Casper”) and doing what I ask (e.g., running my sentence-triggered automations), but stops after awhile (an hour or so). No amount of yelling gets it to turn blue until I restart again. The kids and spouse are starting to make fun of me and my attempts to get that @£$%@ white box to turn blue…
What do you all suggest I try to narrow down the issue, so I can regain my dignity and stop yelling cartoon characters at the living room wall?
Background: I use a container-based install. The relevant section of my docker-compose.yml looks like the following, and it’s composed with Home Assistant and Node Red. I just recently added --debug, which does not appear to do much.
