The Audio Out node in the dashboard package will not display the drop-down menu to select a tts voice. I can get this feature to drop-down and work on my Mac with text to speech in the browser, but won't on my Raspberry Pi. I tried a clean install and only downloading the dashboard nodes, without success. Anyone know why this node won't work on the RPI?

Do you mean that it works correctly when you view the same node red
server from a browser on one machine but on another it doesn't? If so
then the problem is probably a browser issue. I believe there have
been problems with one of the pi browsers (Midori?). If you are not
already doing so then it may be worth trying Chrome on the pi.

Thanks for the reply.

I am running chromium on the pi.

It is the actual node that is not working on the pi.

On my Mac the audio out node in the dashboard package has a drop down menu where you can select from different tts voices, but on the pi this node is not working and the menu doesn't drop down. Since you can't select, the node will not read the text.

Dashboard updated 2 weeks ago and may have an error in this edition?
