Voice and Music Assistant no Music with speech

JosuahCollins

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find anything about this through the search.

I’m using the Voice and Music Assistant Dev. I can play songs on my device without any issues directly from the Music Assistant app. However, when I use a voice command such as “Play [specific song]”, nothing happens at all.

Voice control itself seems to be working fine, as I can control my lights without any problems.

Setup:

Home Assistant
Music Assistant
Jellyfin as the music source
Home Assistant Cloud for the voice assistant
All relevant entities are exposed to the voice assistant

Hi, thank you for bringing this to our attention.

When you have a moment, could you please let us know which firmware version your V&M Speaker is currently running?

Could you also please check whether all related Home Assistant components are running their latest available versions? This will help us narrow down the possible cause of the issue.

We appreciate your help and patience!
