I have a Nabu Casa subscription, and am using tts.cloud_say to broadcast speech to various Google devices in my house. My automations/scripts used to work fine with my Google Nest Hub, but this has recently stopped working - it makes the notification sound, but no text follows. I tried calling the tts.cloud_say service directly from the Services tab under Developer Tools with the same result.
I get error messages in my log files, but don’t understand what the root cause. It seems unable to find some devices, and play on others.
