HomePod mini intercom quit working?

I try and use intercom on my HomePod mini and it says "home hasn't added support with that with Siri"? This was working just fine a week ago.

gersh10,

Thanks for getting back to us. Let's be sure Intercom is set up correctly: Use HomePod mini or HomePod as an intercom. You may want to try toggling it off and on for the HomePod. You may even want to try a bit of different phrasing as shown under "Send an Intercom message".

Let us know what happens.

Have a fantastic day!

Thanks, Siri answers all other questions, just not when trying to use Intercom. I can use the intercom from my watch and phone from within the Home app, but I used to be able to say “Hey Siri, intercom” followed by my message and she would send the message throughout the house.

Ok now things seem to be working.

I found you can't do a pause after you say intercom or you get the response "home hasn't added support with that with Siri", when you use "Intercom in the sentence without a pause to what you want to say it sends your words spoke after the word intercom. Also if you say hey Siri tell everyone or tell a specific room and what you want to say it works... I'm thinking it was the pause that I used to do is what was messing it up.

Thank you!
