Which discord server is that? If I click on the link, I only get a greyed-out discord server page.
I was doing almost exactly the same enclosure. But wasn’t satisfied with result (too small back chamber for speaker, hard to print with all that internal supports, pretty hard to assemble…) and did that thing I posted before. For convenience it’s all on threaded inserts.

Many thanks. This server I forgot to look at…
Here’s a fun one.
So, I just finished setting up the re-speaker thanks to formatBCE github and it’s fantastic. Wakeword detection is fantastic (can’t wait to train my own) all is running smooth. Except…
For some reason I don’t get voice responses. Everything else works without issue but voice does not. I get the little ‘Ping’ sound for activation so it’s not a speaker issue; and get ready for it… Manual tts via the media player works without problem.
I saw someone earlier who had local access issues via http but this isn’t that. I can access local over http without any issues. From what I can tell it’s a home assistant issue? except I can’t find any mention of it anywhere else which makes me think it’s a me issue. My HASSOS is up to date, esp home is the newest version, XMOS is on 1.0.9.
The media player entity flashes on and then off again like it want’s to play something but it just fails and stays silent. Trying to access those two urls from the browser results in basically the same thing. The esphome/ffmpeg_proxy endpoint returns a file but the tts_proxy returns 404
I’m including the logs cause i’ve been messing with this for the last 2 hours and am at a loss. I don’t know enough about mmw or xmos to know if it’s a satellite software issue or not and before I sink more hours into trying to debug my hass setup I figured I’d post this here and see if something jumps out at someone.

My logs look identical. And i see your speaker is in started state for 5 seconds, so it is actually responding…
Could it be that TTS result generated incorrectly? Can you copy that .flac file URL from logs right after interaction, and try to paste it into browser and play?
[EDIT]
Oh sorry, i dove into the logs and actually missed that you tried it. Well, it looks like pipeline problem. Try to change your TTS provider to check if it helps. It might be that “manual TTS” is using different voice?
It was a pipeline issue. Although i’m not sure as to what. I tried the Cloud TTS and it worked so for some reason piper wasn’t working. I tried deleting and setting up a new voice assistant, restoring from a backup, and trying different piper voices. I ended up re-installing piper and that seems to have fixed it now 
As a side note I saw in your repo that more Leds is on your todo section, I also am messing around with that so I ordered a small 8 LED ws2812 light strip that I’m gonna try to add to the onboard ws2812 led. I’ll update after I get the leds with how it goes

Yeah I guess using them on same GPIO as inbuilt LED would work. For myself I decided to pause on that so far - it’s too much of customization, and doesn’t fit simple integration.
Also I decided to pause on multiple buttons. While I successfully did that (added 3 buttons with different resistors in parallel, and used GPIO3 for analog reading), it brought a lot of complication, and definitely not something that would be appreciated by majority of people. It’s easier to make voice command for volume up/down, than soldering 5 resistors and 3 buttons, and extending YAML with custom-tuned section for resistance sensor…
So I just keep it as simple as possible now. Speaker and enclosure, that’s it. So far very positive feedback from family.

One thing I will say is that I do not love the onboard lighting (which was why my V1 at least tried to make use of the haos logo and do something creative). Someday down the road if you get around to publishing the YAML for external LEDs with GPIO mapping I’d love to make use of something that allows us to, say, ring an LED tube around a circular speaker cover.
Will finally get to side-by-side sound quality on the new design tonight. Hope the better speaker and higher enclosure volume help!
But you already can. Just use D0 (GPIO1) on S3, put your dout for led ring there.
It will be working in parallel with onboard LED.
