Hello all, just got a brand new voice preview edition for my spouse, but when it turns on, it shows a red ring and is not functional. I’ve tried to manually reset by holding the button down, I’ve tried flashing it with the web browser (which shows success) but the red ring persist. Im a super nerd so I’ve pretty much tried everything. Is anyone else having this issue? Claude code is showing this
- I2C bus recovery: SUCCESS
- AIC3204 at 0x18: FOUND
- XMOS at 0x42: NACK - I2C hardware NACK detected → Communication with Voice Kit failed
- The XMOS chip is genuinely not acknowledging I2C after a real power cycle. The ESP32 resets it via GPIO4, waits 3
seconds, and the XMOS doesn't respond.
