Although I can control my devices from the home app, when I voice command either of my two Google minis, the response is "there was an unknown error with the {device.name}". I've tried all the recommended solutions except for uninstalling and reinstalling the app, which I really don't want to do since I've got routine set up and I don't want to clobber them for no good reason. Everything was working fine and then all of a sudden it wasn't. And I don't recall making any changes that would have brought upon this bad behavior. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I know how it feels when something isn’t working the way it should. Let’s troubleshoot your devices.
Open the Google Home app > Devices > Tap one of your Google Home Mini devices > Settings > Remove device > Remove.
Back to Devices, scroll down to Other Cast/Local Devices > Tap the Google Home Mini you removed > Add to a room. Follow the instructions in adding it back to a room.
Unplug the power cord for a minute > Plug back in.
Give it a voice command.
If the issue persists, factory reset your Google Home Mini.
I am still having the same issue. I keep getting “unknown issue …” with whatever I have linked to google via Smart Life. many suggestions would be appreciated.
