Hi, I have bought the Voice Assistant Preview Edition. I have Home Assistant on Raspberry Pi and it easily connected over Bluetooth. I went through dialog and it smoothly configured.
I want have local setup with Whisper and Piper.
But the problem is, it plays no sound back. I tried both czech language and default English but nothing worked.
The device is doing light signal when it “speaks” but no actual sound is coming out of the Audio Out port.
Piper seems to work, here is the log:’

I am aware of the Troubleshooting Assist - Home Assistant and the automatically configured IP is correct so I assume it shall work.
Does anyone please have some hints how to debug it and make it work?
