Google home always failing the first time

I have a home assistant installed in a Docker on my nas and Google home integrations set up according to the manual. it has been working for over three years now.

However when I ask Google home to do something it always fails the first time.

It always answers something like home assistant isn’t available.

And then you say exactly the same thing again the second time and it works 60% of the time.

Lights generally work and then things like curtains are less reliable. Air conditioner mostly does not work.

Why is it so unreliable and is there any way to make it less annoying

Hi,

Yes, I have the same problem.

When I enter to Google Home App, Home Assistant devices are disconnected.
The connection comes and goes constantly, that is the problem.

Regards
