Google AIY Voicekit V1 doesn't respond

Question

When running the AIY voice kit "assistant_grpc_demo.py" demo app, it recognizes what I said, but no reply comes from it.

Also, for the "assistant_library_demo.py" demo app, it detects when I say "Ok Google" but doesn't recognize anything I say after it.

Does anyone know how to solve these problems? Any help or suggestions are much appreciated.

Answer 1

I had the same issue. I finally made it work by flashing an older version of the VoiceKit image. Here you can find the older versions:

I used VoiceKit Classic Image 2017-09-11 and it worked out of the box.
