Thanks for reaching out, Sathwik. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
To implement an idle timeout function that doesn't trigger during TTS (Text-to-Speech) playback, you can use an inactivity handler to monitor user activity and manage the timeout effectively. Here's how you can approach it: 1. Set Up Idle Timeout: Use an inactivity handler to monitor user activity and set a timeout duration for detecting inactivity. 2. Pause Timeout During TTS: When TTS starts, pause the inactivity timer to prevent it from triggering. Resume the timer after TTS playback completes. 3. Reset Activity Timer: Ensure the activity timer is reset whenever the user starts speaking or interacts with the system. By integrating these steps, you can ensure that the idle timeout function works as intended without being affected by TTS playback. Let me know if you need further details or assistance with implementation!
