Might be time for a call to Apple Accessibility. The way I understand this allows you to send a one-way message to another Home Pod, is that correct? I don't think it gives you an open, full two-way connection like the Drop-In feature on Amazon Echo speakers? If so I don't think it's a feature I would find very useful just as I always thought the WalkieTalkie feature on the Apple Watch was more of a gimmick. I think given today's technology and fast networks you should be able to open an Intercom connection which allows both people on each end to freely speak just as on a speakerphone call except the quality of the connection should be better than a regular call, more like a Facetime Audio call.

I have completely reset my HomePod but the problem is still the same. I have updated my Apple Watch as well and tried it from there and it does not work. Has anybody found a fix?
