Tts platform different from good translate

Closed this issue · 5 comments

I'm trying to use different platform instead of google_translate.
google_cloud is impossible to use due to the language: setting it, error is raised during usage as not supported (language is defined through voice used and defined in configuration), avoiding set it cause an error saving the ha-sip config.
The same with tts pkatform watson_tts.
Any way to change the platform?

ha-sip can only use TTS platforms supported by home-assistant. So I guess all of these should work:
https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/#text-to-speech

If you configure one of those you must also configure ha-sip to use this one

Sure, obviously.
Google cloud tts or Watson tts (IBM) are supported by home assistant, and I normally use these.
But trying to configure different service in ha-sip, there's the language problem.
Without "language" option in configuration, a error is raised on config save:

Impossibile salvare la configurazione del componente aggiuntivo, Missing option 'language' in tts in ha-sip (c7744bff_ha-sip). Got {'sip_global': {'port': 5060, 'log_level': 5, 'name_server': ''}, 'sip': {'enabled': True, 'registrar_uri': 'sip:fritz.box', 'id_uri': 'sip:homeassistant@fritz.box', 'realm': '*', 'user_name': 'homeassistant', 'password': 'secret', 'answer_mode': 'listen', 'settle_time': 1, 'incoming_call_file': ''}, 'sip_2': {'enabled': False, 'registrar_uri': 'sip:fritz.box', 'id_uri': 'sip:anotheruser@fritz.box', 'realm': '*', 'user_name': 'anotheruser', 'password': 'secret', 'answer_mode':..

So language is required on ha-sip side.
If I place the language option (not required in google_cloud, because the language is defined through the voice configured in the tts service), I can save the ha-sip configuration BUT something go wrong next: Placing a call I get only a long beep instead of the expected phrase and then silence; checking the ha log, I see these errors:

2023-08-21 08:44:09.526 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.tts] Error on init tts: Language 'it' not supported

2023-08-21 08:44:09.572 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.http.view] Unable to serialize to JSON. Bad data found at $.error=Language 'it' not supported(<class 'homeassistant.exceptions.HomeAssistantError'>

So I got beep&silence due to the language option.

Seems that language is required in the ha-sip configuration, but not in the tts service (language defined by the voice)..
But errors are thrown if language is placed in tts config but not required.

Can you please try with it-IT as the language in ha-sip?

Done. Got it working. 👍

I'm feeling little bit dumb 😅
