@sean Thank You. Some more learning on my part. I plan on installing
https://github.com/paviro/MMM-Facial-Recognition and will report back here.

For those interested, I upgraded from a tiny usb mic to a playstation eye and had much improvement on voice recognition.

Hey guys any idea why my Google assistant won’t go back to sleep after use? It’s honestly recent, and weird. I can use it as normal, but the Mic stays blue after the fact and doesn’t turn off.

Hello @sean , I am also looking for a “ding” sound on hotword detection, but no luck. Did you get a chance to add this feature to assistantmk2. It would be of great help when talking to the mirror from far distance.

I’ll consider it.

Ver 1.1.0 is ready. (not yet merged into master branch)
You can use ding sound on 1.1.0. It will be my pleasure if you test this for me.

UPDATE

[1.1.0] - 2018.10.04

MP3 Output is supported. Now you can get more unchunky sound result.(Set audio.encodingOut to MP3 // OGG is not yet supported.)
ding.wav will be played when Assistant is ready to hear your voice.
How to update from prior version

sudo apt-get install mpg321
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-AssistantMk2
git pull
npm install --save wav

@sean Thank You
Ding is working just fine. Thank You. A little annoying sound and I was thinking of replacing it with another sound file. What if I wanted google to say something instead of ding, can I give it text to say easily?
