Echo speaks - playSoundByName(name)

#1

Hello WebCoRE team,

Just a quick question, has anyone had luck using Echo Speaks playSoundByName(name)? Help found here on the echo-speaks site:

https://tonesto7.github.io/echo-speaks-docs/devicesupport/commands/speech_commands/#playsoundbynamename

I can get many of the other speech commands to work with a simple piston I’ve setup but not this one…

Ultimately I’d like to be able to play an mp3 track whose URL I have but this is an intermediate step to get there!

Thanks, Ian

I found this ST thread:

Which then links to this:

As described in the bug report I was able to get a short name working, so:

playSoundByName(‘lion_roar’)

More sounds can be found here:

But I couldn’t get lion_roar_01 to work. More investigation needed…
