Cryptic spoken output for some PicoTTS calls

[freddeh]

The problem

Hi there,

I am using Hassio through docker Container on my RPI4 and experience some weird output from pico2wave for some messages that I can’t really understand. Below service call for TTS gives me a cryptic voice output such as: “de-DE_gl0__1.1.0.0-0-2“

While slight modifications to messages seem to make the output work properly.

I have tried to reproduce this by going into the docker shell and manually calling pico2wave from command line with the same messages without any luck, the files produced there do not have such cryptic output.

Does anyone have similar issues, can reproduce this in their setup, or an idea how to maybe further troubleshoot/solve this?
