Wyoming assist-microphone

Home Assistant add-on that uses wyoming-satellite for remote voice satellite using the wyoming protocol on NVIDIA Jetson devices. Thank you to @ms1design for contributing these Home Assistant & Wyoming containers!

Features

Requires Home Assistant 2023.9 or later.

docker-compose example

If you want to use docker compose to run Home Assistant Core Voice Assistant Pipeline on a Jetson device with cuda enabled, you can find a full example docker-compose.yaml here.

Determine Audio Devices

Picking the correct microphone/speaker devices is critical for the satellite to work.

List your available microphones with:

arecord -L

List your available speakers with:

aplay -L

You should see similar output to below for both commands:

plughw:CARD=seeed2micvoicec,DEV=0
    seeed-2mic-voicecard, bcm2835-i2s-wm8960-hifi wm8960-hifi-0
    Hardware device with all software conversions

Prefer ones that start with plughw: or just use default if you don't know what to use. It's recommended to choose Microphone and Speaker which has Hardware device with all software conversions notation. Set the environment variable SATELLITE_AUDIO_DEVICE to:

plughw:CARD=seeed2micvoicec,DEV=0

wyoming-assist-microphone uses the same device for Mic as Speaker.

TODO's

  • Investigate whether the user should see the transcription of voice commands and responses in the Home Assistant Assist Chat popup when the name of the conversational pipeline is passed as ASSIST_PIPELINE_NAME.
  • Split SATELLITE_AUDIO_DEVICE into SATELLITE_MIC_DEVICE and SATELLITE_SND_DEVICE to allow selection of different audio hardware combinations.

RUN CONTAINER

To start the container, you can use jetson-containers run and autotag, or manually put together a docker run command:

# automatically pull or build a compatible container image
jetson-containers run $(autotag assist-microphone)

# or if using 'docker run' (specify image and mounts/ect)
sudo docker run --runtime nvidia -it --rm --network=host assist-microphone:35.2.1

jetson-containers run forwards arguments to docker run with some defaults added (like --runtime nvidia, mounts a /data cache, and detects devices)
autotag finds a container image that's compatible with your version of JetPack/L4T - either locally, pulled from a registry, or by building it.

To mount your own directories into the container, use the -v or --volume flags:

jetson-containers run -v /path/on/host:/path/in/container $(autotag assist-microphone)

To launch the container running a command, as opposed to an interactive shell:

jetson-containers run $(autotag assist-microphone) my_app --abc xyz

You can pass any options to it that you would to docker run, and it'll print out the full command that it constructs before executing it.

BUILD CONTAINER

If you use autotag as shown above, it'll ask to build the container for you if needed. To manually build it, first do the system setup, then run:

jetson-containers build assist-microphone

The dependencies from above will be built into the container, and it'll be tested during. Run it with --help for build options.
