what do you mean anything? you cannot see the sensors on HA side?
fascinating-indigoOP•6mo ago
The audio sensor does not transmit data. It shows infinity all the time, check out the screenshot
@Amadeo @DrR0x help pls
I'm using NUC, could this be a problem?
it will always show infinity symbol since it's "multisensor"
please check Home Assistant
if the sensors are there
sorry for the delay - busy period

Unfortunately, it's empty, and the sensor is not being transmitted.

I have high definition audio device driver drivers on one computer, audio intel for display on another computer, and everything works fine on the first one, but not on the second one.
oh, that is not correct
do you have MQTTExplorer by any chance?
fascinating-indigoOP•5mo ago
I have an Mqtt explorer, but there is no mention of sound, probably because I do not have an audio input, although when the screen is connected, there is information about the sound in the status bar, but not in the hass.agent
are there any errors in the logs?
can you elabore on the "screen and soundbar" connection? I don't quite get it
fascinating-indigoOP•4mo ago
the problem is that I don't have a built-in audio card in the intel nuc, the sound is output through the monitor.

Hi, I’m also having issues with the Audio sensor
The Audio sensor doesn’t show up in Home Assistant
Could you please enable debug logs and provide them? (Just scrub any info you don't want to be public like IPs etc)

ok so in windows sound settings i enabled microphone(Realtek(R) Audio in recording tab now it shows up
and when i disable the microphone it doesnt shows up
i guess that was my issue because the microphone was disabled
hm, so you had no audio devices?
or just no input devices
sharp-indigo•7d ago
