Subject: ETA on PR #5238? (Gemini 3.1 Flash Live generate_reply 1007 error) > > Hey LiveKit team! 👋 We are super excited to upgrade our language learning app to the new gemini-3.1-flash-live-preview model, but we are currently blocked by a WebSocket payload incompatibility. > > Right now, when our agent joins the room and tries to speak its initial greeting using session.generate_reply(), it triggers an immediate fatal WebSocket error: > 1007 (invalid frame payload data) Request contains an invalid argument > > I saw that PR #5238 (fix(google realtime): support gemini-3.1-flash-live-preview A2A model) perfectly addresses this by dropping send_client_content (the . hack) and routing text through send_realtime_input(text=...) to satisfy the new A2A model restrictions. > > However, because the currently published PyPI packages (livekit-plugins-google==1.4.5 / livekit-agents==1.5.1) still send the old payload formats, the agent just stares silently and the connection drops. We had to roll our production app back to Gemini 2.5 Flash Native. > > Question: Is there an ETA on when PR #5238 will be merged and published to PyPI as a new release? We'd love to test out the 3.1 improvements as soon as it drops! Thanks for all the hard work on the Google integration. 🚀
