Script invoked by Voice PE sometimes stop

Configuration Voice Assistant
1

I have written a script that references and invokes another set of scripts.

sequence:
  - action: script.script1
    metadata: {}
    data: {}
  - action: script.script2
    metadata: {}
    data: {}
  - action: script.script3
    metadata: {}
    data: {}
  - action: script.script4
    metadata: {}
    data: {}

All the scripts get data somehow and then use assist_satellite.announce to read it.

When I ask HA Voice PE to execute the script often only the first script from the sequence (script1) is executed and it does not progress any further. When I compare successful and stuck job, it looks as follows:

Working:

    {
      "name": "script1",
      "message": "started",
      "entity_id": "script.script1",
      "context_id": "01JRCJF2KWFTPAHBHW8EFM60MK",
      "domain": "script",
      "when": 1744178746.392885,
      "context_user_id": "c0a9114dc2ea49258a52c2266b751e8e",
      "context_domain": "script",
      "context_service": "script1",
      "context_event_type": "call_service"
    },
    {
      "state": "responding",
      "entity_id": "assist_satellite.home_assistant_voice",
      "when": 1744178749.2226107,
      "context_user_id": "c0a9114dc2ea49258a52c2266b751e8e",
      "context_domain": "script",
      "context_service": "script1",
      "context_event_type": "call_service"
    },
    {
      "name": "script2",
      "message": "started",
      "entity_id": "script.script2",
      "context_id": "01JRCJF2KWFTPAHBHW8EFM60MK",
      "domain": "script",
      "when": 1744178786.4361637,
      "context_user_id": "c0a9114dc2ea49258a52c2266b751e8e",
      "context_domain": "script",
      "context_service": "script2",
      "context_event_type": "call_service"
    },
.. continues with script3 and 4

And a logbook when the processing got stuck:

    {
      "name": "script1",
      "message": "started",
      "entity_id": "script.script1",
      "context_id": "01JRHN6YV1T5CGSQFXYVJRD1CC",
      "domain": "script",
      "when": 1744349402.8051312,
      "context_domain": "script",
      "context_service": "script1",
      "context_event_type": "call_service"
    },
    {
      "state": "idle",
      "entity_id": "assist_satellite.home_assistant_voice",
      "when": 1744349405.8998666,
      "context_domain": "script",
      "context_service": "script1",
      "context_event_type": "call_service"
    },
    {
      "state": "responding",
      "entity_id": "assist_satellite.home_assistant_voice",
      "when": 1744349405.903556,
      "context_domain": "script",
      "context_service": "script1",
      "context_event_type": "call_service"
    }
  ]
(ends here)

I am suspicious about the idle state - it could be that sometimes script1’s execution takes longer and before the response is read, Voice PE is suspended. Could this be the case? And if so, how do I prevent it from happening?

Thanks, jose

Could you clarify how you are calling these scripts? Is the first one and intent script? If not, how as you “asking” Voice PE to execute it?

Hmm… turns out my description of the issue was not accurate. If I start the script by saying “Script name of the script” to Voice PE, it seems to always only execute the first script. If I do the same using “Assist” through browser, it also executes the rest of the scripts.

Edit: Somehow I resolved it by tinkering around with the script - sadly I am not sure what I changed.
