Text to speech stops before finishing response, or finishes but doesn't switch back to listening mode. #114

Hi,

firstly, thanks so much for making this plugin! I've been wanting something like this for months.

However, I'm having issues getting to work as intended. It listens fine, and transcribes my voice, then switches to reading chatgpt's response fine. But after one or two sentences, it stops reading. The plugin stays green as though it is still reading, but it just freezes there. Also, sometimes it finishes reading the response, but it still stays green and doesn't switch back into listening mode.

I'm using Chrome on a Mac using OSX Monterey 12.6.2. Using the voice Espanol-ES Jorge.

Thanks!

Billy

Hello, Text-to-speech seems kind of buggy and laggy in Chrome. The API seems to have issues. It works perfect for some people, but unstable for some others. At the end of the day, using a separate TTS solution like ElevenLabs seems like the best solution? Alternatively, try using a different voice if you can? I'll continue looking for solutions, but this has more to do with the browser TTS API's stability, which means I can't really help much.
