    Hi,

    Here's a Quick fix to Try:

    Confirm the voice name is valid and available for German (in your region.

    Use a supported output format

    Validate SSML and ensure non-empty text.

    Log the byte length of the audio response before playback if it’s near zero, the synthesis failed silently

     

    Let me know how it goes, Happy to help!

    If you are receiving a "No audio received" error while implementing Text-to-Speech (TTS) for German voices in Microsoft Edge, it could be due to several reasons. Here are some troubleshooting steps you might consider:

    1. Check Audio Output Settings: Ensure that your audio output device is correctly configured and not muted. Sometimes, the audio might be directed to a different output device.
    2. Browser Permissions: Make sure that Microsoft Edge has the necessary permissions to access your audio devices. Check your browser settings to ensure that audio playback is allowed.
    3. Network Issues: If your TTS implementation relies on an internet connection, ensure that your network is stable and that there are no interruptions.
    4. Voice Availability: Confirm that the specific German voice you are trying to use is supported and available in your version of Edge.
    5. Update Edge: Ensure that you are using the latest version of Microsoft Edge, as updates may fix bugs related to audio playback.
    6. Testing with Different Voices: Try using a different voice or language to see if the issue persists, which can help isolate the problem.

    If these steps do not resolve the issue, you may want to consult the Microsoft documentation or support for further assistance.
