Cool - your 2nd link is what I’m working with basically. That helps. Thanks again for all the help/response!

Tossing this into the mix:

I know all the containers are running - and I think the piper one only became available once I did a test via the HASS gui. There is a github issue opened for this - but nothing has come of it. Considering this, would this cause what I’m seeing as well?

Wyoming successfully integrates whisper, but the entity is immediately and forever unavailable

integration: wyoming

### The problem I have whisper running in a docker container on another machine…. The logs show only `INFO:__main__:Ready`. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. I have deleted and reinstalled the wyoming integration for whisper several times. Each time wyoming recognizes and integrates my whisper installation. However, it then immediately reports the entity as unavailable, and it never returns. I have piper running on the same machine without any integration problems. I have set the integration to debug logs, but no error shows up. The problem showed up on the preceding HA version (2023.05) and persists after updating to the latest (2023.06). ### What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue? core-2023.6.1 ### What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core? core-2023.5 ### What type of installation are you running? Home Assistant Container ### Integration causing the issue wyoming ### Link to integration documentation on our website https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/wyoming ### Diagnostics information The only entry for wyoming is to show that the integration started up. ### Example YAML snippet _No response_ ### Anything in the logs that might be useful for us? _No response_ ### Additional information _No response_

Hello @vexter0944 ,
I have exactly the same issues as you with a similar setup. HA, OpenWakeWord, Whisper, Piper work in Helm charts on my NAS via TrueCharts. My pipeline works perfectly in debug mode from my PC, the microphone works with an ESP32-S3 and microwakeword (but still generates the same 44 octets file for Whisper as well).
Have you solved your issues? I think that voice assist is not meant to work anywhere other than on HAOS.

I unfortunately have not solved my issues. Thanks for jumping in with your results, appreciate the input. I feel like the whole voice assist is about half baked right now, so I’m going to hold off for more developments and see where it goes.

Thank you for your feedback. I hope the issues are resolved quickly. I’m not sure how to address the problem or even participate in any way to its resolution.
