Google home doesn't find my devices anymore when language is in Italian

[SalOcchipinti]

Starting this morning, Google home doesn't see my devices when the language is set to Italian. If I set to English it finds everything just fine.

If I ask to turn off a light or tun on the TV it will tell me it's not found or not configured. Exact same device will work if I change assistant language to English

Nothing has changed on my end for over a year, how do I troubleshoot?

Hi, exactly the same in french. If I speak in english it works, but not in french. It worked well yesterday, it bugs since this morning.

[SalOcchipinti]

Ok good to know it’s not just Italian. Hope this gets addressed soon

Same here in Portugal.

I have 4 google nest mini 2 and more then 50 IoT devices via smart life working for more then 1 year.

yesterday all was working good, but today, when I say "hei Google switch on kitchen lights" or "office lights" the nest always reply "Sorry I do not understand".

If I go to Google Home App all the divices are there and working manually.

I even deassociated all the nest mini and reconfigured all of them again.

Some of this devices have routined defines like for example 2 computer monitors that are in a routine called "switch on the monitors". If I say "switch monito 1" or "switch monitor 2" he does not work and yesterday was working. but if I say the reoutine name they will switch on.

Same for Germany, but for me it doenst matter if I speak german or english, it's always I don't understand -- this sucks, all devices work via Home App and worked with speach for more than 3 years now.. I cant even turn my lights on and off now..

For me for it to work in English I had to leave it as the only language 

[CoperCop]

That's a workaround ! It worked in english, german, italiano, french and what ever before.. so it has to work again in the selected language. 

[SalOcchipinti]

Yes but it you select any language other than English it won’t work - even if it’s the only language ! 

[Ben22]

If you can't wait the problem is solved by google, you can create a routine in your language (i made it to enable or disable a light). Then it works in your langage (the name of the routine). It's stupid to make a routine just for one object, but well....at least it works till it ll be repaire

My house is share with my wife and I found now that she can do all by voice on all the nest devices and I can´t

does any of you have the same so you can test with another mate from your home?

[CoperCop]

Yes, other persons are working (not always).. I also did the voice rec. test again, nothing changed. This seems to be a google related problem

[Alborz]

I have the same problem. It does not work in German or English. I also tried different types of sentences, but neither of them worked. I also tried to speak very clearly in both languages. It does not understand that.
However, if I give him a math problem, he calculates it.

[Jshighholy]

Yeah i got the same problem in Indonesian Lamguage to. But still working on english.

[Cloonaid]

Same here Dutch it doesnt want to turn on the light it just start streaming music. And if i want a specific device, it doesnt recognize it. Already tried resetting it (google nest mini) and turning off power on devices and internet.

[SalOcchipinti]

I don’t it this is a valid workaround but I added Italian as second language in assistant now Italian works

But if I have just Italian it won’t work - weird but at least it’s working again 

[Ben22]

It seems to be repaired this morning. All work fine again
