Chime TTS - Play audio before/after TTS audio lag free

Nimrod_Dolev · July 26, 2023, 2:12pm

@jreed509 I just released a hotfix v0.5.6 - can you please let me know if it’s working again for you?

Seems like the path is not working as it still gives the error about the /config/tts/ file. See output below:

Yep v0.5.6 isn’t working for me either. I can only hear TTS messages from previously cached messages, but any new text just plays the start chime sound:

@Bramus it looks like there is an issue with both the path to the TTS audio file and the media source path of the generated media file: media_content_id: /home/homeassistant/.homeassistantmedia-source://media_source/local/sounds/temp/chime_tts/cotpiv7i.mp3

I have released another bugfix version, v0.5.7. Please let me know if the issue is fixed or if it persists.

Nimrod_Dolev · August 1, 2023, 12:59pm

@jreed509 I have fixed the missing audio bug caused by cache = false in release v0.5.7.
Please let me know if it is now working for you.

Bramus · August 2, 2023, 8:56am

I tried yesterday (withouth debug enabled), i now can hear the start and end sounds, but no Google Translate input.

I will try to check later today when i’m at home or tomorrow to check with logging enabled.

v0.5.7 works for me with cache turned off, but with cache enabled I only here the start sound.

@Bramus at least we’re making progress
Please provide the debug logs when you can to help me investigate.

Nimrod_Dolev · August 3, 2023, 9:19am

@jreed509 I see from your debug logs that though the Piper TTS file looks like it is generated successfully, it was not found at the path returned from HA’s API.

I compared the previous version of Chime TTS(v0.5.6) to the current one (v0.5.7) and I did not see any changes which should affect the code concerning TTS audio files.

Can you please call Chime TTS (with the Piper TTS platform and cache enabled) and confirm that the TTS file exists in the path you see in the debug log?
Does it work for you if you include a new (uncached) message string, with the cache turned on?
Does the same issue occur in Chime TTS when you use a different TTS platform (eg: Google Translate)?
Did you upgrade/change anything in your HA instance around the time when you updated Chime TTS to v0.5.7?
Can you please reboot your HA instance and try again?

@Nimrod_Dolev To answer your questions:

Yes, I can see this file in my config folder after running chime TTS
No, no change with a new uncached message (I’ve been testing this by adding a random number to the end of my message string).
It does seem to be tied to Piper. Testing the same message with Google Translate seems to work fine.
I did update home assistant to 2023.8.0 around the same time, but I don’t remember the exact sequence of events.
No change after rebooting.

Also, I think this might have something to do with the line in the debug logs end_chime_path = in the debug logs. In most of my testing I don’t specify end_chime_path in my service call. For example the following yaml:

service: chime_tts.say
data:
  chime_path: custom_components/chime_tts/mp3s/bells.mp3
  delay: 450
  message: Hello world! 
  tts_platform: tts.piper
  entity_id: media_player.workshop_sonos
  cache: true
  announce: true

If I add end_chime_path: custom_components/chime_tts/mp3s/bells.mp3, everything works as expected and I hear the full message with Piper.

This is a great integration especially since is now supports the “announce” feature. Is there some reason that each service call cannot sent to more than one media_player entity? I like to send most of my announcements to the entire house.

I have done some additional testing on this integration and am really impressed with the performance when paired with Sonos speakers.

There are two show-stoppers for me before I can switch my entire TTS notification methodology over to this.

Show stopper #1 - I need to use a Script for the Chime_TTS service call so I can set the mode of the script to Queued so that when there are multiple notifications happening close to each other, they don’t interrupt the notification playback of the previous one. I want each notification to complete then play the one next in the queue. To do this I need to pass variables to the script via templates. This works for the message but NOT for the chime path. Below is my script.

service: chime_tts.say
data:
  end_chime_path: ""
  delay: 450
  tts_playback_speed: 100
  volume_level: 1
  message: {{ message }}
  announce: true
  tts_platform: amazon_polly
  entity_id: media_player.workout_room_2
  cache: true
  chime_path: custom_components/chime_tts/mp3s/{{ clip }}
enabled: true

Show stopper #2 - I need to send notifications to multiple speakers. It is not obvious how to do this and does not appear to support.

@Nimrod_Dolev, huge props for developing this. Would love to hear some feedback on what I am missing here. Thanks in advance.

I’m watching with interest. I played a little with this and thought it was fantastic especially when combined with announce. Two generally excellent improvements to TTS over Sonos.

However, it has been a few weeks now since I looked into it but as far as I remember,

Grouping is not possible with announce (a limitation with the Sonos api I believe not the HA implementation). And also,
How are you queueing your scripts?
announce does not provide any ‘feedback’ as to when it is announcing or of the duration of the announcement so it is impossible to know if it has started or finished.

Nimrod_Dolev · August 9, 2023, 2:45pm

@Bramus I have released a new version, v0.6.0 which should fix the TTS filepath bug. Please update and let me know if it’s now working for you.

Nimrod_Dolev · August 9, 2023, 2:46pm

@jreed509 I have been able to reproduce the issue, and as you wrote it looks like it’s an issue with Piper. I tried adding blank audio as the end_chime and multiple delayed calls to fetch the audio (in case it’s a read lock issue) but I couldn’t get it working. I’m open to suggestions as i’ve run out of idea. If it’s related to Piper it might not be something I can fix on my own.
If anyone else has any insight into why Piper specifically has this issue please let me know.

Nimrod_Dolev · August 9, 2023, 2:58pm

@theadlee thanks for the feedback

I have added support for multiple media_player entitles in release v0.6.0, please upgrade and let me know if it’s working for you.

In terms of scripting, please refer to the following script example:

variables:
  message: Message variable was empty
  clip: bells.mp3
sequence:
  - service: chime_tts.say
    data:
      message: "{{message}}"
      announce: true
      tts_platform: amazon_polly
      entity_id: media_player.workout_room_2,media_player.dining_room,media_player.bedroom
      cache: true
      chime_path: custom_components/chime_tts/mp3s/{{clip}}
mode: queued

Also, in case it wasn’t clear, you can use your own mp3s - not just the ones included in Chime TTS.

Nimrod_Dolev · August 9, 2023, 3:00pm

@klogg thanks for the feedback.

I have added support for multiple media_player entities as well as queueing service calls in the latest release, v0.6.0.
Please upgrade, try it out, and let me know if the new version provides you with the ‘feedback’ you were after - and if not please let me know what type of change/s you’d like to see

klogg · August 9, 2023, 3:09pm

Thanks.
I will do, but it won’t be for a few days.

theadlee · August 9, 2023, 4:05pm

Will do thanks!
