ESPHome config - Raspiaudio Muse Luxe as a voice assistant satellite in Home Assistant
Raw
README.md

Introduction

The purpose of this ESPHome config is to be able to use the Raspiaudio Muse Luxe as a voice assistant satellite in Home Assistant.

Features

  • wake word, push to talk and continuous conversation support
  • response playback
  • service exposed in HA to start and stop the voice assistant from another device/trigger
  • visual feedback of the recording/success/error status via the Luxe's onboard LED

Pre-requisites

  • Home Assistant 2023.10.0 or newer
  • A voice assistant configured in HA with STT and TTS in a language of your choice
  • ESPHome 2023.10.1 or newer

Known issues and limitations

Installation instructions

If the Muse Luxe has already been added to ESPHome

Edit your config and paste the one below. Double check Wifi connection details, API encryption key and device name/friendly name to make sure you use your own.

If the Muse Luxe is not already in ESPHome

Add a new ESP32 device in ESPHome, using the configuration below.

After the device has been added to ESPHome

Compile and install the firmware on the speaker. If auto discovery is turned on, the device should appear in Home Assistant automatically. Otherwise, check out this guide.

You should be able to remove this from the readme now:

Known issues and limitations

the media_player component in ESPHome home-assistant/core#92969. It works with cloud STT, though

The link to the issue shows it has been resolved.

Since updating to 2024.5.x I can't send TTS cloud to my museluxe using this yaml. Speaker works with radio streams. TTS works to homepods. Any thoughts as to what broke it?

New to github but I think I fixed the issue @monsieurlatte . Looks like its something to do with how the current code is handling muting the dac:

output:
  - platform: gpio
    id: dac_mute
    pin: GPIO21
    inverted: true

I simply removed all references of dac_mute and used mute_pin from media-players/raspiaudio-muse-luxe.yaml:

media_player:
  - platform: i2s_audio
    name: None
    id: luxe_out
    dac_type: external
    i2s_dout_pin: GPIO26
    mode: stereo
    mute_pin:
      number: GPIO21
      inverted: true

This fixed my issue. dont forget to remove - output.turn_on: dac_mute from esphome: as well.

I am still receiving the following error BUT the audio from TTS is at least playing:

[01:54:45][W][component:237]: Component i2s_audio.media_player took a long time for an operation (542 ms).
[01:54:45][W][component:238]: Components should block for at most 30 ms.

EDIT: Guess I should include the whole thing...
EDIT 2: After sleeping on it and looking at some other examples, this is my latest yaml:

Thanks @AnthonyJWinslow !
It actually solves the TTS which didn't work.
However it creates 3 new problems vs the original Yaml from @tetele :

  1. For 30% of the cases, it just doesn't start at all, I've only this in the logs, no connection to wifi nor HA
    [17:33:34]Bets Jun 8 2016 00:22:57 [17:33:34] [17:33:34]rst:0x1 (POWERON_RESET),boot:0x0 (DOWNLOAD_BOOT(UART0/UART1/SDIO_FEI_FEO_V2)) [17:33:34]waiting for download
  2. With wake word switch off, when I push the Play button for a few seconds to make the device start listening, the speaker makes a not cool sound during ~10 sec. It only happens for the first attempt after I switch on the speaker (it works well after that until the next reboot). See quick video https://photos.app.goo.gl/dv31Rze1cDyhh8MQ9
  3. Volume buttons don't work anymore even if you remove #disabled_by_default: true. However this works well through the blue bar HA UI (but I'd prefer to control directly from the Muse Luxe)

And there is also still the same (and old) problem about the battery status that is not working properly (% does not match reality for instance it shows 5% whereas it's fully charged in reality)

Any idea ? Anyone seeing the same cc @MacrosorcH (I didn't change a word from the YAML) ?

Does anyone have issues with esphome 2024.10.1? Muse luxe keeps crashing. Going back to 2024.9.2 works fine (it also worked fine in 2024.10.0)

@luca-angemi 2024.10.1 appears to have broken more then muse, my everything presence lite sensor also locks up after booting with the new firmware. It's 6am here so I will look into this when I'm a little more awake 😴

Same here, I had to revert to a previous recovery/version of HA to make it work back!

ESPHome 2024.10.2 is out, with this fix esphome/esphome#7662

I can't try it atm, but please get back if it does fix the crash

Hi all
after several attempts I manage to configure my muse as voice assist thanks to the efforts of @tetele. THANKS!
Now I just got the problem that I don't receive feedback from the speaker. Although it should work with cloud STT (as stated above mine isn't working now. Is that correct or probably there is something wrong with my setup?

image

if now it doesn't work even with cloud then If I understand right we have 2 options
to add a speaker

# This is useful when you want to stream the response on another media_player
# - homeassistant.service:
#     service: media_player.play_media
#     data:
#       entity_id: media_player.some_speaker
#       media_content_id: !lambda 'return x;'
#       media_content_type: music
#       announce: "true"

But when I try I get the following:
Can someone give me the right code for this option please?

`INFO ESPHome 2024.10.2
INFO Reading configuration /config/esphome/muse-voice-assist.yaml...
ERROR Error while reading config: Invalid YAML syntax:

while parsing a block collection
in "/config/esphome/muse-voice-assist.yaml", line 142, column 5
expected , but found ''
in "/config/esphome/muse-voice-assist.yaml", line 150, column 6`

or
2. change the code as per @AnthonyJWinslow above example.
if I just copy and paste this code from 'improv_serial and below will work?
`improv_serial:

button:

  • platform: safe_mode
    id: button_safe_mode
    name: Safe Mode Boot`

Since I just manage to set up the assist after several hours of testing I am afraid to "touch" anything right now :)
So if possible someone advice if my above assumptions are correct and help me out with my questions in bold.
Thanks

Not with that unformatted code. YAML is super sensitive to whitespace and that's exactly the error you are getting. Paste the full config on something like dpaste.org and link it here if you want help

is this ok?

edit: I am not sure what you are asking. I am just deleting the # in the above yaml like this
https://pastebin.com/xnKSaMJ6
and I get the error when I try to validate the code

Do you need something else? (sorry english is not my native language)

tetele commented Oct 29, 2024

The errors above don't seem consistend with the second config you've sent.

First off, on line 142 replace !lambda return x; with !lambda 'return x;'

Then compile again and paste the errors you get. If yoy change anything else, also upload the config to pastebin again.

userMak commented Oct 29, 2024

now that you told me that is the yaml indentation problem I deleted the # and one more "space" and the code is working!
Thanks!

2 more question if I may
I see that there are 2 more options in the below card

  1. if I change the to "assist" it will use the local assist that I made? or do I need to make more changes? (this assist is in Greek)

image

  1. Now I have it in Default. What "relaxed" and "aggresive" meaning?

@tetele

tetele commented Oct 29, 2024

  1. Yes
  2. Relaxed means it has to be pretty quiet for a while after you speak for the recording to stop. Aggressive means that as soon as you stop talking or lower your voice, the recording stops and it's sent to the STT

(greek language is not working, probably I have to change the HA in Greek. Now is in English. I can see that it listens Greek and it reply in Greek but it "doesn't understand")

Excuse my ignorance, but does this implementation of voice assistant on the muse box include the timer feature? This is a deal breaker for my wife if it's to replace our google nests. I have messed around with the M5stack echo and this firmware which includes timer, but before I start adding code to your yaml, @tetele, I wanted to make sure this didn't already work. (My muse is on backorder so it will be a while before I can attempt to implement)

I'm missing something.

I cannot assign a wake word, with your comprehensive yaml, I get:

but when I use M5stack's code (on a m5 stack), I get

Any ideas how I can get it to use the Pis wakeword detection?

@SvenPaterson no, timers are not included. The config is a little outdated, to be fair 😅

I appreciate your response. Unfortunately I had no luck with this yaml nor the “official” firmware at raspiaudio.github.com, nor the esphome projects page. I’ve come across a few different versions of yaml for voice assistant implementation of this hardware but they all either not installed properly / had issues at compile or exhibited poor performance (ie consistent wake word recognition or perform ain’t appropriate actions after receding a command) I’ve had to just fall back on using this as a squeezelite box and forget the VA functionality entirely for now. Seems a shame. Maybe someone better at esp programming will figure it out! Of course, could always just be my incorrect config in the end 🤣

I’ve noticed multiple discussions on Reddit and other forums where users have reported very low volume levels with the ESP Muse Luxe when using ESPHome.

I’m experiencing a similar issue—my ESP Muse Luxe outputs noticeably low volume when running ESPHome firmware. Despite experimenting with various YAML configurations, I haven’t been able to achieve full volume. Interestingly, with my custom Arduino sketch (muse-mqtt-audioplayer), the speaker outputs at maximum volume.

I tried to troubleshoot, so I attempted to modify the register values in the ESPHome ES8388 component (PR #3552) to align with those in the RASPIAUDIO Muse library (museS3.cpp), but this approach hasn’t yielded any improvements.

In my sketch, I utilize the ESP32-audioI2S library by @schreibfaul1. I noticed that ESPHome uses its own fork of this library, esphome/ESP32-audioI2S.

I tried too the new PR #6956 but volume problem persists.

Has anyone else faced similar issues with the ESP Muse Luxe and ESPHome? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Tagging @jesserockz, @tetele and @RASPIAUDIO for their expertise. Thank you all for your great work!

@mguellsegarra you can try esphome/esphome#6956 (which supersedes https://github.com/esphome/esphome/pull/3552/files#diff-8a184938984a60dadf629e018497ded60f1eed994e3173ff1b9bf1dca360207c). I haven't used my Luxe in a long time, so I don't know if this config still works with newer versions of ESPHome.

It works, but it does not fix the volume thing. Thanks four your reply :)

Hi I have just updated the component here :
https://github.com/RASPIAUDIO/esphomeLuxe/blob/main/components/es8388/es8388_component.cpp

at the end :

  //fully differential output Left -L1/R1
  this->write_byte(0x2E, 0x21);
  this->write_byte(0x2F, 0x21);

    //fully differential output Right -L2/R2
  this->write_byte(0x30, 0x21);
  this->write_byte(0x31, 0x21);

if you use this yaml it will call this component
https://github.com/RASPIAUDIO/esphomeLuxe/blob/main/raspiaudio-muse-luxe.yaml

external_components:
  - source: github://RASPIAUDIO/esphomeLuxe@main
    components: [es8388]
    refresh: 0s

I think I hear a difference in volume but if someone could confirm?

edit: I do hear a difference

@RASPIAUDIO, thanks for your response and the modifications! I tried something similar without success—it’s clear who really knows their stuff here, haha. I think I was missing setting the 0x21 value to the 0x30 and 0x31 registers. I’ll test out your suggestions and share my results here. 🎉
