Hey all,
Short problem, I’ve got a Unifi G4 doorbell pro. I’ve setup Frigate and a Frigate card. But when I press the microphone button on the card you don’t hear anything at the doorbell.
I’ve read and searched many days now and combined many sources, so my setup could be a bit messy by now.
To the technical outline.
• Unifi Dreammachine Pro
• Synology NAS with docker
• Home Assistant in Docker
• Frigate in Docker
• Unifi G4 Doorbell Pro via POE and enabled RSTP(S)
On the Unifi Dream machine
• Forwarded ports 80 and 443 to Synology NAS with Docker
On the Synology NAS
• Created custom domain via External Access → DDNS → Add Synology.me domain.
• Reverse Proxy via Login portal → Advanced → Reverse Proxy ( custom sub domain port 443 to HA Docker IP and port 8123)
• Created Let’s Encrypt Certificate via Security → Certificate → mirrored custom sub domain to cert.
- So, Im able to visite HA through HTTPS (without warning). Also working through the companion app.
- Now, I can stream the Frigate card well in the HA app. Here the image is smooth and the sound/microphone button show up. (In desktop browser it sometimes does not show, then it shows a preview image and refreshes each second.)
- In the companion app I can press the microphone button and it turns red. Also (on my android device) I see the green microphone in use notification in my top right corner.
- When standing next to the doorbell no sound/voice comes out.
Below are all the settings. What part am I missing 
I’ve got a feeling I made a mistake in the Frigate config. But I’m not sure how to fix it.
Also, I don’t know how to debug Frigate or what to look for. Any pointers?

Note, would it be better if they shared a network?
In the HA configuration.yaml I’ve added:
