Voice PE not using custom intents?

Configuration Voice Assistant
1

I’m trying to work out how to use custom intents, so have started out on what I thought would be an easy one. Seems I under estimated.

I have created my sentences file, /sentenses/en/Jarvis.yaml

language: "en"
intents:
  JarvisTVStatus:
    data:
      - sentences:
          - "Jarvis, is the TV on?"
          - "Tell me if the television is on"
          - "Check the status of the TV"
          - "What's the TV doing"
          - "Is someone watching the TV"
          - "What is the status of the TV"

My intent_script.yaml looks like this.

intent_script:
  JarvisTVStatus:
    speech:
      text: >
        {% set tv = states('media_player.sony_xr_50x90s') %}
        {% if tv == 'on' %}
          Yes sir, the TV is currently on and probably showing something you don’t want to admit watching.
        {% elif tv == 'off' %}
          No, the TV is off. All is quiet... for now.
        {% else %}
          Hmm, I can't seem to tell. Perhaps the TV is sulking again.
        {% endif %}

Running a debug I’m getting the following.

init_options:
  start_stage: intent
  end_stage: intent

Can someone point me in the right direction? Where have I gone wrong, if I need to provide more information then just say.

Thanks,

Probably needs the intent sentence file to go under a directory with a name to be as follows (from the Doc):
… create a custom_sentences/<language> directory in your Home Assistant
