Error "Wrong tts file format" when calling tts.cloud_say to MPD media player

I have a MPD installation on a raspberry pi 3b (Raspbian Bullseye). I use it as a media player for HA. In general it works but sometimes I’m getting the following error when calling tts.cloud_say. Any ideas?

Error on load tts: Wrong tts file format!

I am having the same error. Using MPD on another computer in network.

Advised that these messages are due to MPD looking for thumbnail images (in 4 different formats) relating to the music file being played … so … fortunately we can ignore these messages more as a warning - and unfortunately this issue can not be fixed in the context of the addon.
