This is something I'm going for too. Currently just running Ollama integration with HA for voice control but I'd be moving STT/TTS locally too. The new Qwen 3.5 35B loads fairly quickly and responds quickly enough to be usable for conversation on my system. The 9B version is extremely fast and adequate for voice control.
