Wake word toggle disabled on m5stack atom echo

Configuration

1

took me a while to figure out how to get the m5stack atom echo working as i don’t have a typical HA installation. i run HA in a vm on proxmox. there are definitely some critical pieces of info missing from most of the guides on how to get the atom echo working - like the yaml config of the device in esphome is very specific. anyway, once i figured that out, most of the integrations started working. however, the “use wake word” and “use listen light” toggles are disabled and i can’t seem to figure out how to enable them. it’s working as i would expect when the button is pressed. anyone know what i’m missing here?

firmware is: 2024.5.5
i’m using this config for the device: firmware/voice-assistant/m5stack-atom-echo.yaml at f9290e1925a3840ef5fc43a5ec5dcb2c704b2d7f · esphome/firmware · GitHub

Turns out, my execution was a little out of order and I probably should have added lets encrypt first (been procrastinating on that).

  1. set up lets encrypt - super easy with cloudflare (sign up if needed, make an api token) video here: https://youtu.be/hUDAlS8YICI?si=sJy3_gV8bWH_7_6F

  2. make sure your home assistant installation has bluetooth available and the integration is installed. (this is how the device is detected initially)

  3. install esphome
