Interruption of all-night white noise from HomePod Mini

White noise stops when colors show up indicating Siri is activated. White noise resumes once Siri is done misbehaving. Recently, Siri answered a presumed (stupid) question with “My favorite movie is ________.”

Siri on Homepod mini slurring words I've been having this issue ever since the new Home architecture was updated with matter/thread where Siri's voice warps or glitches in a way where it sounds like they are slurring their words and it's hard to make out what they're saying (I'm using American voice 5). Siri doesn't have this issue on my watch, phone, or ipad. I've had this homepod since tvos 15, and haven't had any issues up until earlier this year. I have kept it in the same location on the dining room table the entirety of the time it's been with me. Resetting power doesn't make a difference. Happens sporadically.

Siri on HomePod activates anytime a Farxiga commercial is on the television It took a few days before I realized what was going on but anytime a Farxiga (drug) commercial plays on the television, Siri on my living room HomePod responds to it. It replies with something like, "I don't know, but if you ask again from your iPhone I can give you more information". So much for privacy APPLE! It only happens with that one commercial. There are no words in the commercial that sound anything like Siri or Hey Siri, so there is some other trigger. Also, if a friend says Hey Siri to the same HomePod, it doesn't recognize his voice and won't execute the request. I'm convinced despite Apples claim to privacy commitments, there's some sort of kick back going on here. I want to turn it off, but don't know where to do it. Anyone else have this occureance? How do I fix this?

"hey Siri" interactions are quite annoying lately I have to shout "hey Siri" even three times to ask something. The homepod mini light turns on, then suddenly turns off and my iPhone 13 shows Siri animation in the screen but then disappears. Happens with my iPhone, with AirPods and with the Homepod mini It started happening after *OS17 update...
