I just stumbled over this support article.

Change Siri’s volume on your HomePod

Never thought about telling Siri to talk quieter. The output was always to loud for my taste. In the article you find a section for HomePod:

You can ask Siri to speak louder, quieter, or at a specific volume. Say “Hey Siri,” then say something like:

• “Speak louder.”
• “Always speak quieter.”
• “Set your volume to sixty percent.”

HomePod automatically adjusts Siri’s response volume based on the level of noise in the room, your distance from HomePod, and how loudly you’re speaking to Siri. You can turn automatic volume on or off by saying, “Hey Siri, turn on automatic Siri volume,” or “Hey Siri, turn off automatic Siri volume.”

I recently learned that playing with ADE enrollments of AVPs on an unsupported (not yet) MDM could lead to a device stuck in ‘waiting for configuration’ screen. Restarting device will end in the same screen even after you unassigned the device in ABM.

There was no obvious way to reset the device running visionOS 2.0. I have ask ACE support and there is a way to reset the device if you do the following.

1. Press both top buttons. A windows will appear: Apple Vision Pro is not configured.
2. Go to Accessibility options -> Eye input -> Switch eye input (you need to reconfigure your eye input settings).

Once you did this, an Apple logo with a progress bar will appear and AVP will be reset to factory settings before starting the new calibration progress.

Hopefully that helps if you are playing around like myself.
