To me, Voice is the coolest part of the smart home. It gives it personality. It's something not just anyone has and helps your house stand apart from the pack. I use the [Amazon Polly TTS](https://home-assistant.io/components/tts/) component since it sounds the closest to Alexa. This gives a seemless transition from Alexa to Home Assistant responding. Most think it is just one system. The mixer allows TTS to mix right in over Music. The TP-Link Outlet is used to turn off the Mixer and AMP when we do not need it. It's a great inexpensive solution.
-* Turn off all the voice devices when we are not home or in bed.
-* All voice notifications are pushed though a speech engine. Random words and sentances are used to give the house some personality.
-* Voice announcements whenever someone comes home.
-* Voice notifications for all sorts of things related to the house. (Temps, presence, doors open, windows open, garage door statuses, sunset.)
-* Digital Cuckoo Clock that goes off each hour and on the half just like a real Cuckoo Clock.

Once you can teach your house to talk, you just keep expanding on it's vocabulary. It's addicting. :)
