Having both the microphone and audio output tied to the same device for voice assistant is a bottleneck to voice assist potential.
Goal: Use my overhead speaker that’s wired to a Arylic amplifier board (LinkPlay Integration). Since it’s a media device I would like to send the voice assistant responses through it.
I have a few Atom Echo M5stack I can use as a microphone. Alternatively I could use a Atom Lite with the microphone hat.
- Use wake word with Atom Echo and tell it a command.
- Have the response be sent through another media player device.
This could include features such as dimming the current playing audio before a response.
Having a preset volume with responses.
- Set volume to %25 when responding.
- Set volume back to previous level.
