The "TTS Output" and "Audio on device" sections make it seem like there is no spoken output, only status beeps.
A former Mycroft dev, Michael Hansen[1], is still building several year-of-the-voice projects after he was let go. I'm especially excited about Piper[2], which is a C++/py alternative to Mimic3.

- kkielhofner 3y agoWe plan to make a Home Assistant Willow component to use any of their supported TTS modules to play speech output on device. We just didn't get to it yet. Our inference server (open source, releasing next week) has highly optimized Whisper, LLaMA/Vicuna/etc, text to speech, etc implementations as well. It's actually not that hard on the device - if the response from the HA component has audio, play it. We just don't have the HA component yet :).
