Pro 4 Camera Audio Detection Not Working

winj — Sun, 15 Mar 2026 02:46:32 GMT

Hello. I am trying for the first time to use audio detection notifications. I think I have all of the settings correct, but so far I am getting no audio detection notifications (shout, loud clap, dog barking). Wondering what I might be missing. Motion detection is working fine. Here are some details:

Pro 4 (H4) camera
"This device is currently in the Arm Away mode and is detecting motion."
Audio Settings > Microphone ON
Default Mode Settings > Audio Detection High (I also tried Low)

Ultra SmartHub VMB5000r6

Is audio detection enabled in the rule for the camera (in both Arm Away and Arm Home)?

That was it, thank you very much! I had forgotten about that setting.
