It’s unclear to me whether this is an occasional issue, or if the TTS just does not work. If it’s an occasional issue then please follow @Muhammad_Usman_Bashir 's reply above. If Cartesia TTS just does not work for you, please share your AgentSession configuration and reproduction steps. It’s also possibly related to this: [Does cartesia/sonic-3-latest still route to Sonic 3.5, or Sonic 3? - #3 by darryncampbell](https://community.livekit.io/t/does-cartesia-sonic-3-latest-still-route-to-sonic-3-5-or-sonic-3/1149/3)
