Amazon Echo Dot 2nd Generation: I am unable to hear alexa's responce to my questions

Sat, 02 Sep 2023 16:44:31 -0700

I just set up my dot about a week ago. It was working fine as far as we were able to hear Alexa's response. However I just noticed that we are not able to hear it but the light does turn on and if I open my app on my phone I see my question and response. I have re-connected my wifi as well and still no luck.

Amazon Echo Dot 2nd Generation: Is the mute button a "hardware" or "software" button

Fri, 01 May 2020 07:18:38 -0700

Hi,

for privacy concerns: Is the mute button a hardware one? Is it effectively disconnecting the microphones or does the actual functionality depend on the fireware?

Best regards,

Mike
