TTS not working when google mini is sleeping

Hi!

I have automations that play some text using TTS on my Google mini when motion is detected on my cameras. Always worked perfectly but stopped today (after updating to 2024.10 but can’t say if it’s really the problem).

So what happens is, when the home mini becomes idle, the states changes to :

When it’s in that state, when I tried to use TTS to tell something, the only thing I hear is the chime. No text is spoken.

When it happens, this is what happens:

it became “unavailable”.

But after that, it’s now awaken so the next occurence works well.

In the past, even when the state changed to turn off, it was working well! I don’t get why I get the unavailable now.

Any idea?

thank you

Probably related. There seems to be an issue with Google media players and 2024.10.0.

probably it! thanks!

Looks like a fix was just merged. It probably made it for the .1 release so you should be good to go in a day or two.
