https://github.com/livekit/agents/issues/323 How to solve this issue, it is happening in my recent versions of livekit too

Thanks for reaching out, Arunprakaash. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.

The issue is: User Speaks Agent Starts Synthesizing Response User Interrupts Agent with Second Speech Agent Responds to First Message Agent then sends a second, separate response to the Interruption Speech.

Thanks — I see the problem you described (agent finishes the first response, then separately replies to the interrupting speech). That behavior usually means the agent isn't cancelling in-progress generation/speech when it detects an interruption or turn boundary. To fix this I can help you verify a few things — please share the items below. Once I see them I’ll give exact config changes or code snippets. Please provide: • Your `AgentSession`/agent config (redact secrets) • Which STT and VAD plugins you use (e.g., AssemblyAI, Silero) •

livekit-agents

version and LiveKit server version • A short excerpt of logs around the interruption (from

lk agent logs

or Agent Insights trace) While you gather that, try these quick checks (often resolves the issue): • Ensure interruptions are enabled: set

allow_interruptions=True

. • Enable preemptive generation:

preemptive_generation=True

so interim transcripts start LLM inference and are replaced on interruption. • Use STT endpointing or the turn-detector model for reliable turn boundaries (STT semantic endpointing like AssemblyAI is recommended). • Confirm the agent cancels queued TTS when an interruption is detected (look for cancel/stop TTS calls in logs). Send the config + logs and I’ll pinpoint the exact change or patch.
