Having trouble getting assist to work. Can anyone help me diagnose?

Configuration Voice Assistant
1

Text to speech works through my Piper services, but I can’t get text-only assist to work. Screenshotted all the configuration options I could see that might be relevant. Can anyone help me diagnose this issue?

I am running HomeAssistant Core with piper and whisper running via separate docker containers.

Can you post a screen of the debugging page?

I feel like I’m missing something fundamentally here, but I don’t know what.

I was talking about the debug page that you can access here.

But it seems your issue is related to the intent matching engine. I had the same issue when I defined a new zone. A reload of HA helped solve the problem.

Gotcha. I don’t really get any more information out of this but here you go. This was right after a restart in fact I had just upgraded my home assistant core container.

Can you share a screen instead please? It will be easier to pinpoint the issue.

Same. “No intent matched” on almost any command at all, including “turn on all lights” and stuff I use every day. When I specify an entity (“turn on sofa light”), it parses fine AND then does nothing (entity is correct). Year of the voice indeed.
