Voice PE stops recognizing wake word and requires reboot

After some time (not sure exactly how long yet), my device requires a reboot because it stops responding to the wake word. Pressing the button on top works to activate it, but the wake word does not.

I haven’t seen it mentioned here so… anyone know whats up?

Exactly the same issue here. Today, it has happened overnight.

Yesterday, it happened somewhere within a 3 hour window. The device just shows as idle in the logbook during those times.

I might have a similar problem, not sure.

It still reacts to the wake word, but after every command it just flashes red and returns to idle, no log messages are created. A reboot fixes that or sometimes it fixes itself after quite a while. Seems like it is losing connection somewhere (using Nabu Casa as backend).

I have now configured a static IP for the Voice Assistant PE to see if that helps.

My issue was happening when using Nabu Casa or Open AI. Other than that (and using Jarvis instead of Nabu), everything else is on default settings, running via the Pi 4.

The static IP approach solved a similar issue I had with my Google Nest Hub thingy a while back.

Edit: didn’t work

I am having the same issue. Has anyone found a solution?

The solution is to ask the developers to remove jarvis. It doesn’t work. :smiley:

I think the problem is more nuanced than that. Jarvis does work, it’s just that it stops working. So clearly there is an issue somewhere. Not sure what exactly though, which is somewhat annoying

I’m also finding another issue - I have it working with Gemini, and have given access to my calender, with a blueprint, but every now and then Jarvis will tell me it doesn’t have access to the calendar, even though I just used it to check something in the calendar. It’s like it’s losing the connection to Gemini.

Sometimes a reboot works to solve it, but sometimes I have to very specifically tell it something like “using the LLM calender blueprint, tell me the next entry for xxx date on my calendar”.

I can then go back to asking calendar questions normally.

I have never been able to get it to respond to Hey Jarvis, only OK Nabu.

I trained my own Jarvis wake word rather than Hey Jarvis, I don’t like having to say Hey, which works very well, however it can’t be used now, hopefully it will be something for the not-too-distant future.
