VPE in room with smart clock: Can I somehow retreive the TTS response to display it simultaneously on the display?

Configuration Voice Assistant

Hi there,

My VPE in the living room sits next to my smart clock with a Home-Assistant Dashboard.

Would love to show a popup with the response on the smart clock while Assist responds through TTS.
Like most other Voice Assistants with a display (or the mobile phones with their assistants) are doing.

Especially when you ask something that returns a list of things, it’s often nice so see it instead of listening to the long text.

But I can’t find a way to get that information.
Seems like the voice events aren’t visible on the default event bus.

Any solutions our there? I’m also open to dirty hacks to grab that info through listening to endpoints that are only intended for Assist or something like that. :smile:

There’s some (fairly recent) threads where people were talking about the timers on a VPE. Probably parallel to your search. You’d have to latch the same code.
