Describe The Problem: In the iOS home.app the toggle under Camera & Doorbells for my G4 doorbell "Chime on HomePod" results in the following error: "Could not complete operation". Therefore will not ring on my test HomePod mini.

To Reproduce: Enter iOS home.app Home(icon)>Home Settings>Cameras & Doorbells>G4 Doorbell>toggle "Chime on HomePod".

Logs: N/A

Homebridge Configuration:

[ { "address": "192.168.1.1", "username": "xxx@xxx", "password": "abc" } ]

Thanks for the report. A few things:

  1. No beta software releases of anything are supported, including (and especially!) UniFi Protect.
  2. HOOBS is several versions behind of the Homebridge mainline. homebridge-unifi-protect requires a modern version of Homebridge. HOOBS is aware of these issues and is planning updates to bring them back inline at some point in the future.
  3. I can’t reproduce this error on any device running production iOS / HomePod, Protect, and this plugin. If you have a method of recreating this issue running supported software configurations, I’d appreciate it if you could share it so we can troubleshoot: I (and others) reliably have HomePod-based chimes working.

I would first get yourself on production-only firmwares and OS-releases. If that doesn’t work, take a look at running a mainline Homebridge release. If neither of those work, and you have a way to reliably recreate this issue, please let me know...it’s a very nice feature and I want you to be able to enjoy it too!

Thank you for the response and you are absolutely correct in all 3 points.

  1. I reset my UDMP to the latest stable 1.8.3 which includes protect 1.16.8 and restored from back ups.

  2. I installed homebridge 1.1.6 on my macOS iMac.

  3. I am still getting the same error when trying to enable doorbell chimes on the HomePod mini.

Have you tried a reset of your HomePod? While I didn't get that error I did have one that just didn't chime, and resetting it fixed the problem!

I reset the HomePod this morning and it seemed to solve the issue! Thanks. I have noticed some issues with Siri's responses as well. I am chalking it up to this new HomePod mini being a bit buggy.
