Best way to wake monitor before TTS

[jamesarm]

My audio goes through the monitor (has nice built in speakers) and I am using the MMM-PIR module to put the monitor to sleep. If I send a tts command for MMM-GoogleTTS, it doesn’t wake the mirror so there will be no audio output. Is there a way to set this up so the monitor would wake on any audio output or will I just have to resort to bypassing the monitor speakers (trying to avoid).

@jamesarm i don’t think there is anything already constructed to do that (never heard anyone using tts really before)

SO, you would have to change the module that sends the text to send a notification to PIR to wake up, then when wake up happens and u get a ‘user precence’ notification back, THEN send the text to TTS
