User Started Speaking

Voice Agent

The userStartedSpeaking message confirms when a user begins to speak.

The UserStartedSpeaking message is sent by the server to notify the client that the user has begun speaking, prompting the client to stop any ongoing agent audio playback and discard any buffered audio, ensuring that the user's input is prioritized and processed immediately.

The server will send a UserStartedSpeaking message every time the user begins a new utterance. If the client is playing agent audio when this message is received, it should stop playback immediately and discard all of its buffered agent audio.
