Thanks — I’m responding to your question about interruption behavior and

false_interruption_timeout

for the shown

TurnHandlingOptions

. Interruption behavior with your settings • Turn detection uses

MultilingualModel()

to decide when a user or agent finishes speaking. • The agent allows barge‑in (it listens while speaking). If voice activity is detected during agent playback, the system checks whether that audio contains a meaningful transcript or is just noise/backchanneling. • You set

"resume_false_interruption": False

, so if the system classifies the event as a false interruption it will not resume the agent’s speech. What

false_interruption_timeout

means •

false_interruption_timeout = 1.0

is the time in seconds the system waits after detecting voice activity during agent playback to decide the interruption is false. • If no valid transcription appears within that 1.0s window, the system treats the event as a false interruption (emits an

agent_false_interruption

event) and then follows the

resume_false_interruption

policy. Summary • Brief noises or non‑transcribed sounds during the agent’s speech will be considered false interruptions if no transcript appears within 1.0s, and because

resume_false_interruption

is False, the agent will not resume speaking after those false interruptions. Sources: Turns overview | LiveKit Documentation | How to match the latency of the homepage agent | LiveKit | Adaptive interruption handling | LiveKit Documentation, with interactive elements
