Enabling a wake word

Enabling a wake word consists of 2 steps:

  1. Installing the openWakeWord add-on.
  2. Enabling the wake word for a specific voice assistant.

Prerequisites

Installing the openWakeWord add-on

  1. Go to {% my supervisor_addon addon="core_openwakeword" title="Settings > Add-ons > openWakeWord" %} and select Install.
  2. Start the add-on.
  3. Go to {% my integrations title="Settings > Devices & Services" %}.
    • Under Discovered, you should now see the Wyoming integration.
    • Select Configure and Submit.
    • Result: You have successfully installed the openWakeWord add-on and Wyoming integration.

Enabling wake word for your voice assistant

  1. Go to {% my voice_assistants title="Settings > Voice assistants" %} and select Add assistant.
  2. Give your assistant a name, for example the wake word you are going to use.
  3. Select the language you are going to use to speak to Home Assistant.
    • If the Text-to-speech and Speech-to-text sections do not provide language selectors, this means you do not have an Assist pipeline set up.
    • Set up Home Assistant Cloud or a manually configured Assist pipeline.
  4. Under Text-to-speech, select the language and voice you want Home Assistant to use when speaking to you.
  5. To define the wake word engine, under Wake word, select openWakeWord.
    • Then, select ok nabu.
    • If you created a new assistant, select Create.
    • If you edited an existing assistant, select Update.
    • Result: You now have a voice assistant that listens to a wake word.
  6. For the first run, it is recommended to use ok nabu, just to test the setup.
