Siri hands free not working on Mac Studio

I have the base model Mac Studio and Siri hands free (trying to activate Siri just by saying "hey Siri" without pressing any keys) is not working. Siri does work when I bring it up using the keyboard's microphone/F5 button.

Mac Studio, macOS 12.3

I do not believe it is supported on this model just like it is not supported on my Mac Mini M1. Some of the Mac Books and 2020 iMac as well as the new Mac studio monitor will work by saying "hey Siri"

There is another way to setup but I have not tried this:
