Hello all. I have this annoying issue.
I’ve been trying to use TTS but of course its not working. I’m getting these errors
Failed to cast media https://homeassistant.xxxxx.com/api/tts_proxy/aaf4c61ddcc5e8a2dabede0f3b482cd9aea9434d_en_-_google_translate.mp3 from tts.base_url (https://homeassistant.xxxxx.com). Please make sure the URL is: Reachable from the cast device and either a publicly resolvable hostname or an IP address
My setup is pretty interesting. I’m running homeassistant in a VM inside of Promxmox. I am also running docker swarm. So when a request comes into my network, it hits docker swarm which passes the traffic to the VM. I am using traefik as a reverse proxy and using SSL through letsencrypt.
Inside of my network, all my IOT (which includes the google speakers) devices are on a separate VLAN which generally are not allowed to access anything on my main network except the VMs hosting docker and homeassistant but they do have access to the internet.
When I join my IOT network, I can access the mp3 file and can hear what is being played but I get the error within home assistant. I can also access my homeassistant url outside of my network as well so I know it does work.
Here is my config for TTS
# Text to speech
tts:
- platform: google_translate
base_url: https://homeassistant.xxxxx.com
I turned on logging within homeassistant. I’m getting this when I try to do TTS

Heres the TTS page that I was following.
Any ideas? This has been bugging me for over a month.
