I want my assistant to speak suggestions chips as well. Anyone know how to do this? – Raheel Ashraf Nov 15 '19 at 14:51

Suggestion chips are meant to be hints for what the user will say, not something that your Action says. As such, using SSML in the suggestion chips wouldn't be expected.
If you want the suggestions to be read out, they should be placed alongside the text that your Action is outputting.

I am asking for google home speaker devices. Suppose If I am building an app for both platforms google assistant and google home. For a google home user, how would they know there is a suggestion chip? Or do I need to write separate code for both devices? – Raheel Ashraf Nov 16 '19 at 22:00

Suggestion chips are not necessarily meant to be replacements for user input. I would suggest checking the [surface capabilities](https://developers.google.com/assistant/conversational/surface-capabilities) and changing your text-to-speech if the surface does not have a screen. – Nick Felker Nov 18 '19 at 15:35
