5 years ago Having the same issue.
As suggested in a comment on the seemingly related albeit closed, issue 200, moving from type: announce to type: tts at least gets Alexa to say something. I'm currently using it as a workaround...

5 years ago My issue with accessing the "Communications" setting is fixed now after i spoke to Amazon support. My account where reset and moved from UK to US. We removed all devices and I setup everything. Still only the TTS mode works and not the annoncement.

In you reply on the link issue you mentioned the upgrade from 1.3.* to 1.4.1. On Sunday when Annoncement stopped working I where on version 1.2.2 or 1.2.3, and therefore i decieded to upgrade to 1.4.1. It still did not work, i found the FAQ and it said to go check "Communications" that then where enabled but i could not access it. I can access "Communications" and annoncement works from the Alexa app. What Alexa devices are you using?

5 years ago I have a Sonos and an Echo Dot. Announce worked on both prior to upgrading to 1.4.1. Works on neither afterwards.
Wonder if it could be related to migration to HACS rather than the upgrade to 1.4.1?
I’ll be away for a couple of days. Will provide logs once I’ve returned!

Running in docker where do I get the logs?
I enabled:
logger:
default: critical
logs:
custom_components.alexa_media: debug
alexapy: debug

Good to hear its not only a Sonos problem. Upgrading from 1.2.* to 1.4.1 I changed to use HACS.

5 years ago Back at home, enabled debug, and was running the exact same service calls as I did prior (indeed, it was cached and ready to go), but "unfortunately" it ran as it should. Ie. no errors. So no logs to send, I'm afraid.
Could it have been some caching error or the like, perhaps related to migrating to HACS? Either fixed by some amount of time having gone by, or X amount of reboots...

5 years ago @krissen HACS shouldn't have any impact. Sometimes it could be an Amazon connectivity issue and we have seen issues where multiple commands to the same Echo may result in some being ignored.
@mikkelke Can you try to do an announce and a tts and show the logs from when it issues those commands?

5 years ago @mikkelke Ok, I'm not seeing anything wrong with the data. Can you try renaming the pickle file and relogging in and seeing if that helps?
The next thing may be to craft an announcement by itself without the subsequent volume change. This is so we can make sure it's not because the Sonos is dropping a command because it's getting hit by more than one.
If that doesn't work, there may be something special about the way the Sonos packet has to be configured. I'd need you to create a routine with announce targeting your Sonos in the app, and then pull the sequence data. Basically you'd follow the instructions here, and then stop at step 7 and provide the entire operationPayload portion to compare to what we're sending.

]Ok I agree, I think if you can't get the Alexa App to get it to work, then there's something happening in your setup. I noticed that the locale is being populated as en-DK, which I believe is English in Denmark? This is the first time I saw that locale and I don't know if Announce is supposed to work for there. Amazon support may know better.

5 years ago The issue started before i changed locale. When I started using the Alexa Media Player, my Alexa account where on amazon.com, I got the impression that I could get faster responds time (lower latency) if I change my locale. I contacted Amazon and they change it to Germany. All skils text where now written in German, so I made them change it to UK and that have been working for more then half a year. When i contacted Amazon I contacted Amazon they gave me this link: https://www.amazon.com/mycd and this time I put in my correct address and region where changed to Denmark. When I logged in on Alexa I could see that I was back on alexa.amazon.com aka the US servers.

5 years ago I will also continue to troubleshoot this, as I noticed this morning that the Echo dot indeed announced as it should in my morning routine, having switched back from ‘type: tts’ to ‘type: announce’, but the Sonos did not. (Prior to 1.4.1 and HACS, both announced. With ‘type: tts’, both tts:ed.) So +1 that it might be something Sonos-specific.
I’ll get back with logs and whatnot within a day, I hope.

5 years ago If any of you are a 0.96 version or HA and try a 1.3.1 version of the component for comparison that would be helpful. I'm not seeing anything specifically wrong from the output.
I'm working on a revamp major release that may impact the way we interact so may need to table debugging this until we migrate since the way we interact here will be deprecated.

5 years ago Don't know if it matters, but I tried pulling the nodestoExecute data, for a routine I had created in the Alexa app for the purpose and noticed
1) My Sonos device was not listed among devices possible to announce to. Despite that, I can do a manual announcement in the Alexa app, announced on the Sonos. But not create a routine which does it.
2) Locale, in the nodestoExecute data, is set to en-SE. 🤷♂️Haven't seen that before.

(Only my Dot is listed as a valid device for the function.) I don't know if I was able to, earlier; never tried it.
What I can do, from the Alexa app, is to use the "Communicate" tab, and send an announcement that way to all devices. (Can't seem to specify only one device.) Doesn't work quite the same way as the announce available as routine though. Instead of just "Bling Test", I get "Bling From NAME, Test". That gets broadcasted to both the Sonos and the Echo Dot.

5 years ago @krissen Thanks for the help debugging, I really appreciate the log generation even if I'm not directly responding. The reason I try to get the routine info is that at least can show us acceptable syntax. Again, the syntax looks fine, so I'm a bit stumped. The fact it's not an option in the routine makes me think perhaps Amazon stopped supporting it?
Some additional tests I can think of:

5 years ago Whole house audio group. Normal Alexa-groups doesn't seem to support more than one speaker. Tried to create a multi-room music group, but was told no compatible speakers were found. So far, I haven't been able to find a way to create a group within Alexa, for the two speakers.
1.3.1 Tried that some days ago, but seemed the alexa_media -component wouldn't run? I don't recall the exact errors; sorry. Also downgraded alexapy, but that didn't help. I thought that maybe 1.3.1 required HA < 0.97? (I'm on 0.97.2. If it can be avoided, I'd rather not downgrade HA itself.)
Testing via dev_service. (Though I've tested via automations as well.)
Let me know if you've got something else to try or troubleshoot. Testing custom .py files or the like is fine as well.

5 years ago I contected Amazon severeal times and thay could not tell me why it stopped working. They say the escalated my issue to techincal team but I never got a responds. Since i use the announcement for my doorbell (I can enable the old ringer) I will try to change to Google Assistant. Thanks for the help and support.

5 years ago I have the same behavior for my ecobee4. I suspect amazon changed something on the back end for these third-party devices.
Seems like about a month ago that HA announcements stopped on the ecobee4. Announcements still work for all amazon-manufactured devices, and using an echo to make an announcement ("alexa, announce that it's bedtime") includes the ecobee4.
Updated to latest HA (98.3) and alexa_media (2.1) through hacs (13.2) without any change.
Finally got around to "fixing it" tonight and TTS works. I liked the chime at the beginning of an announcement, but I'm fine with TTS for now.

commented
5 years ago @mikeydarin just to check, when it stopped working for you, were you on an older version of alexa_media? Some people said it last worked for them in 1.3.1 (but it's unclear if the issue arose because of a new release or because Amazon changed something). If you hadn't been updating and still had it stop working, that would answer that question.
mikeydarin
commented
5 years ago @alandtse I believe I was on an older version (1.2.1, maybe?) and it just stopped working, and then I deleted alexa_media, installed hacs, and used hacs 12.x to install alexa_media 1.4.1. I've been lazy for the last few weeks, then tonight I upgraded everything. All of this is from memory and a little amateur detective work, so it could all be wrong.

5 years ago @krissen thanks for the update. What may be helpful is to see if the routine mechanism ever starts working. As soon as it does, then I think we can edit the command to follow that.

Minor advantage: it adds a chime prior to the message. Sounds trivial, but it's nice. 🤷♂️ Could be achieved by playing a custom sound prior to message, too.

Anyway, I don't see the point to open another issue since it's clearly related.
SamB-GB
commented
5 years ago @septeven Yeah its a slightly different issue because Sonos and Ecobee while can have Alexa through them they are not treated by Amazon and a full Alexa device and that's why these have stopped working. It seems your having an issue with an amazon device so best not to confused this thread with Amazon and Non-Amazon devices as this one specifically related to non Amazon devices.
alandtse
commented
5 years ago @septeven As mentioned by @SamB-GB, others are monitoring this thread for a specific third-party device issue. For me to do anything for you on an echo dot I'll need logs and it doesn't make sense to add it to this thread since that's not the main problem. That said, I appreciate the report but I do not plan to look into the issue without data to review. I'll mark this subthread offtopic so others can find relevant information for the thread.

4 years ago Unlike others, tts does not work for me either, on my Bose devices.
announce and tts both work on my Echo, but neither work on my Bose devices.
Describe the bug Announce doesn't work, while TTS does. Until Sunday announce worked perfect on my Alexa enabled Sonos speakers (Sonos One and Beam). If i use the Aleaxa app to do the annoncement it works perfect. In the FAQ is mentioned to check that "Communications" is enabled and it is on all my speakers. But i noties that if I click on "Communications" the Alexa app get stuck loading the page. It is one of my favorite features and I use it as my doorbell annoncement.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Expected behavior Play announced message on every speaker taget.
