- Go to the <Hs3 root> directory, subdirectory html/Sonos/Announcements. There should be some (at least 1) .wav files something like Ann_TTSDaytimeAll_0.wav, can you play them with Media player and do they have the right announcement info?
By trying either of the above, if you can hear the announcement, that means something is wrong with either my PI or maybe a firewall issue where the HTTP request from Sonos to the HS PC is not coming through and therefore the file isn't transferred to the Sonos Source player. Another source could be the speaker client. Did you check it's log for errors/info. Using perhaps a special voice?
Another thing to try: I think you have your Speaker device in the Event set as $SONOS$TTSDaytimeAll$WNET-AUTOMATION:* can you write the full name so WNET-AUTOMATION:xxxxxx or remove the WNET-AUTOMATION:* (and HS3 will automatically append :*) to it. I noted some issue with this yesterday, have it fixed in the next beta, not sure this is the same problem but worth trying.
I also noted that you have Media Room as source player but it is not check marked as destination. Shouldn't be an issue, but never tried it that way, perhaps you should also select Media Room as a destination. If that works, then there is some bug in my program. If you don't want Media Room to participate, then just select another source player, one that does participate, that's the beauty of doing it this way, no need for physical connections, and you can pick any player to play.
