Problems with google home tts

Configuration
1

Hi, I’m trying to make my google home mini (media_player.salotto in the code below) says a message when an event occurs but all I get is the media player going idle and a “ping” sound… this is my config file:

# Text to speech
tts:
  - platform: google
    cache: true
    cache_dir: /tmp/tts
    time_memory: 300
    base_url: http://192.168.1.113:8123

this the tts section of the automation file:

- service: media_player.turn_on
  data:
    entity_id: media_player.salotto  
- service: media_player.volume_set
  data_template:
    entity_id: media_player.salotto
    volume_level: 0.3
- service: tts.google_say
  entity_id: media_player.salotto
  data_template:
    message: "ALLARME ALLARME ALLARME"
    language: "it"
    cache: false

and this the errors I got:

2018-11-02 11:35:12 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.core] Error executing service <ServiceCall tts.google_say: entity_id=['media_player.salotto'], cache=False, language=it, message=ALLARME ALLARME ALLARME>

@AndreaF, I can tell you that on my setup, which is working, I have almost everything the same as yours except I had to take the base_url out of the configuration.yaml in the tts: section and the html: section for mine to work, and in the script definition, I didn’t use a data_template…try this script, it works for me…

tts_tester:
  alias: TTS Tester
  sequence:
  - data:
      entity_id: media_player.salotto
      volume_level: 0.30    
    service: media_player.volume_set
  - data:
      entity_id: media_player.salotto
      message: ALLARME ALLARME ALLARME
      language: it
    service: tts.google_say

Hope this helps.
