Thanks for reaching out, Mohammed. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
The error you encountered, 
APITimeoutError
, occurs when an API request to synthesize speech times out. This typically happens if the text-to-speech service does not respond within the expected time frame. To avoid this error, you can try the following: • Ensure that the network connection is stable and has low latency. • Check if the text-to-speech service is operational and not experiencing downtime. • Increase the timeout settings, if configurable, to allow more time for the service to respond. • Retry the request, as the error is marked as retryable in the logs. If the issue persists, please let us know so we can assist further. Sources: GitHub::livekit::agents | tests/test_tts.py
