I followed the guide to set the local Voice Assistant, but I do not get voice feedback, only text. I have local assistant without https, so I have to type requests in chat. I would still expect the audio feedback. Is that no possible with local assistant or without https? Or what am I missing in my configuration?
TTS is working fine as I hear voice if I run the test…

ok I did not think that as a possibility. Downgraded to 2024.4 and it started working.
Thank you for your heads up.
