## The problem
**The homeassistant companion app can be used as a digital assistant** https://www.home-assistant.io/voice_control/android/ and when set up works very well.
However checking the setting within the companion app shows the message "Homeassistant is not your default assistant" with an accompianing button to "Set as default"

When the button is pressed it takes the user to eOS settings -\> Digital assistant app where my phone shows that the default digital assistant app is Home Assistant.

The impact is that the wake word functionality added to 2026.2.3 https://www.home-assistant.io/voice_control/android/#enabling-wake-word-detection-on-android cannot be enabled.
