Open Home Assistant has a voice module. I haven't personally tried it, though.

I did! with their own new hardware (https://www.home-assistant.io/voice-pe/) sadly the microphones are way worse than e.g. in an alexa speaker. Also the performance of the „voice pipelines“ (stt, llm, tts) are a bit of a pain because they are all in sequence and not e.g. using stream features.
Yeah home Assistant is going through some voice/AI hiccups at the moment. They're updating to LLM and it's sorta half implemented.
