Adjust assistant sensitivity

My pixel tablet is always docked and is part of my home, but I am unable to adjust it's "hey Google" sensitivity on the home app, both on my phone and on the tablet itself. Occasionally it will prompt me on the tablet screen regarding these settings but there is no sure way to trigger this.

This is what my app looks like, I can adjust my other devices but not the tablet.

I just want it to set my kitchen timers and it hears me, but a different device always sets the timer. Maybe it is a different issue

This is another one of those situtations where the tablet is trying to be both a home device AND a phone. Just like the phone cant set sensitivity neither can the tablet. Please use the in app feedback to report this and I will also bring it to the attention of the team

Hi any word on whether this has been considered by the development team?

I am also in need of this "adjust/increase sensitivity" function, as my brand new Pixel tablet disappoints in regards to reacting to Hey Google voice prompts.
