I added a Google Speaker. Now when I give my Google Mini a command the Google speaker will execute the command. I tell Google Mini to set timer for 5 minutes and Google speaker replies that it has set the timer. This is bad because Google speaker is in another room. Any suggestions.

Hi Tom,

I have experienced the wrong one responding in my house too.

You can try adjusting the sensitivity of the speakers. See steps here. The speaker you are closest too should be the one to respond but give that setting a try and it should help.
