Thanks for these helpful little obs and tips. Hopefully things to be addressed in future updates. I'd discovered the Siri volume control for Homepod now we've a mini in the bedroom - asking Siri the time in the small hours woke the whole house the first time we tried! I keep the volume for that set through Home App automations (ie, louder after 8am, quieter after 10pm) A bit of a faff for an Apple user, but does the trick! I know we joke about Siri's (lack of) intelligence, but I'd have thought some sort of variable-time-based-default-Siri-volume would be no bad idea on Homepod, even if Apple would need to give it a pithier name ;)
