I have just purchased a Wireless/WiFi Nest Doorbell and want to connect to my Nest Mini Speaker as a "chime" but the option to do this is greyed out in the App. Any idea why?
I had a Ring doorbell at my previous home and this could do this absolutely fine

If you have "Visitor announcements" turned on for your doorbell, you should get a doorbell sound and an announcement on every Nest Hub and Nest Mini in the same Google Nest "home/structure" unless it is set to "Do not disturb".

My guess is that you are referring to the "Indoor chime" option, which is designed to turn on sending a signal to a conventional indoor doorbell chime and is automatically grayed out and disabled if your battery doorbell is not wired to an indoor doorbell chime. To send visitor announcements to your Nest speakers when the doorbell button is pressed, you need to turn on the "Visitor announcements" option (https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7672451).

Thank you. So, I have enabled Visitor announcements. How do I now get it to notify me through the nest speaker?
