I have some Atom Echos installed as HA remote voice assistants. They’re very cool, but they seem to say “I’m sorry I didn’t understand that” a bit too often when I’m not addressing them.
The Echos are thinking I’m giving them commands when there’s a discussion between people in the room or when a show/movie/music is playing. I have a custom wakeword, but I don’t think any sounds happening in the background are sounding like it - there is only 1 word in English that rhymes with the first part of my wake word.
So I’m wondering if there’s a way to configure the Echos to be more strict on what they consider to be the wakeword, or to be less attentive to ambient sound (or to require a more direct command, like “WAKEWORD” said kind of loud).
You can tweak noise supression and a few other settings
Thanks!
I enabled the assist_pipeline and retrieved and listened to the audio files from my Echos, but when I tried to look at the
esphome/m5stack-atom-echo-wake-word.yamlfile to edit the values fornoise_suppression_level,auto_gain, orvolume_multiplier, the file doesn’t exist. I do have anesphomedirectory and it containsm5stack-atom-echo-xxxxxx.yamlfiles for each of my echos, but inside those .yaml files there is novoice_assistantsection.Can you please paste the contents of your
m5stack-atom-echo-wake-word.yamlfile (obfuscating anything private, of course)? I’ll try manually creating this file to see if the Echos recognize it.
