For those of us still impatiently waiting, what is your experience so far with “Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition”?
—- I ordered just 2 hours in but the vendor I used sold out in 21 minutes. I just found out I also missed the restock, so hopefully some time next month.
I have it. If i say Basement lights off, it takes 15 seconds and 70% of the time says Sorry I couldn’t understand. My kid thinks it is very funny tho.
I am using a few of self-built assistants using https://github.com/formatBCE/Koala-Satellite/tree/main - which was heavily inspired and uses a lot of very similar hardware to HA Voice. I have to say my speakers turned out pretty great.
Also sitting idly by wanting more people to talk about it! All I want it for is two features:
-converting units of measure hands-free in the kitchen(27 teaspoons to fl oz, as an example) -check the weather for the day on my way out the door.
Tagging in on this too, I’m wondering what speaker people are combining this with for music streaming. I’ve heard on the early reviews that the speaker is fine for assisting, but not great for music
