Google Home media_player connect problem after upgraded

Configuration
1

So I noticed after upgrading HA, the tts service stops working… my google Home stops announcing things hapenning around the house.

I checked the log and see this error, any one has similar issue??? help! :wink:

You’ll get that error when there was an error that stopped the platform from initializing. If you check earlier in your log - probably close to boot - do you see an error when initializing the media_player for kitchen_home?

I will do another restart and see if I could see anything … I noticed in States Page, there is no longer any media_player; so there must be something wrong…

Okay, so I restored my 0.39.0 version and I can see my media_player.kitchen_home in the States page.

I manually trigger the TTS command again and I hear my Google Home initiated but says nothing. Checked the log and saw this:

I have no idea what’s happening…

UPDATED: I noticed tts_proxy in the api URL …would that be related to this issue?

As I clicked “Turn On” media_player for other Chrome casts in the house, it connects fine and works… but for Google Home on HA, I got exception in the log.

I am still searching for solution!!

Some one on reddit suggested to manually specify the media_player instead of letting HA discover it and that did the trick… I finally got my Google Home connected and functioning again.
