Change the voice. The Uh-Huh seems to be associated with the South American Female voice option.

For instance the American Male has proper, respectful, intelligent sounding replies. I’m sure others do as well, you’d just have to try out different ones.

Or just don't wait between "Hey, Siri" and your question. Siri only says that if you pause. So, no pause, no uh-huh.

I meant to write the same thing the other day but was traveling. I too called, the woman laughed and suggested I change the voice. I did and no such luck. I called again as was them called back by an engineer. He had me do a full reset and nothing. I called again and they told me Apple knows about the problem and should be offering a bug fix in a future update. So annoying!

I’ve posted a reply to feedback. They said they won’t reply directly but it will go to their support team. Fingers crossed! This is the worst error of judgement in their part who wants to be responded to with uh-huh? Seriously apple - you’ve grossly misread your audience on this one!

Given how few people are complaining about it, I suspect most people either don't care or find it funny.
