Google Home: What To Do When Google Assistant-Powered Speaker Becomes Unresponsive

If your Google Home device is not responding to your commands, then it's probably due to a dirty mic. Tech junkie and web developer Robby Payne shared his experience this week and advised other users who may encounter the same problem to try this nifty trick in making the Google Assistant-powered speaker receptive again. In Payne's story, which he shared on Chrome Unboxed, his Google Home device stopped responding to his questions and commands one day. The lights atop the speaker would spin upon hearing his daughter's questions, but the device would go out and not provide any response. Despite resetting the AI speaker, it still remained to be unresponsive.
