Google TTS cuts off announcements

See original GitHub issue

The problem

Often the Google speakers cuts off prematurely from the generated senteces, so instead of ‘alarm is now activated’ it will say ‘alarm is now activa’ or the like. It’s the normal Google TTS integration, sent out to google home mini, google hub and google home.

  • Last working Home Assistant Core release (if known): Never worked 100%
