Thanks for tagging me @RaspberryTech. I'll look through relevant sources and get back to you shortly.
### Answer The
error_no_audio_received
disconnection reason indicates that Retell has not received audio from the frontend for a while after the connection was established. [(1) ]() Here are some troubleshooting steps: 1. Check for client-side audio issues - Ensure your browser has microphone permissions enabled - Try a different browser (Chrome is recommended) - Restart your computer to clear any audio device conflicts [(2) ]() *2. Verify your WebSocket connection (if using Custom LLM) * - Test your WebSocket URL endpoint using Postman to verify the connection is established [(3) ]() - Ensure your URL protocol matches your connection type: - HTTPS endpoints: Use
wss://
prefix - HTTP endpoints: Use
ws://
prefix - Check for trailing slashes in your URL that might cause issues 3. Add logging to diagnose the issue - Add logging in your WebSocket code to confirm the connection is established - Add logging in your WebSocket message handler to verify you're receiving messages from the Retell server 4. Check your server setup - Verify your server supports WebSocket connections—some platforms like Vercel edge functions and serverless functions cannot act as a WebSocket server If the issue persists after these checks, it may be a platform-side issue that requires support investigation. You can create a thread in the bug-report channel with your call ID and detailed logs for the team to review. [(4) ]()
