After a recent update to ESPHome, my ATOM Echos no longer show a wake word in Home Assistant and the wake word field isn't even editable:
And indeed they aren't responding to me speaking the wake word.
Has anyone encountered this? Does anyone know of a fix or has a suggestion?
I know almost nothing about this, I've only done a few hours of testing with HA and nothing with ESPHome, but a quick search of "esphome wake word disabled" shows a lot of forum chatter since early December. So, you aren't alone, and I can't help you, but there are a lot of resources out there that might.
Thanks for the suggestion, https://lemmy-tesseract.thewooskeys.com/u/GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca, but I'm not able to find anything recent about this issue. I found a couple mentioned of this issue and of similar-ish issue from 6 months and a year ago but they're using way older versions of ESPHome and so their solutions don't work for me.
If you can share any of the links you found, I'd appreciate it.
Here's the search I used, with a six month range on it. There are a variety of issues shown with the wake word with different versions, etc., but I don't know your exact specs. There are also some for mini wake word, which may or may not be relevant to you. That's about all the help I can give, unfortunately.
Thanks. I had indeed found those same results. All are old (i.e., using an older version of ESPHome) and only a couple report the same problem as me, none of which have a solution.
I'll keep looking. In the past, similar ESPHome problems "fixed themselves" once another ESPHome update was released (or sometimes 2 or 3 updates later).
