### Answer It seems like you encountered an issue related to the voice output when using Deepgram with your Vapi assistant. While I couldn't find a direct reference to issues with Deepgram voices malfunctioning in the provided information sources, it's worth noting that Deepgram is primarily used as a transcription (speech-to-text) provider rather than for voice (text-to-speech) output in Vapi's ecosystem [(1)]() . For issues related to voice output, Vapi supports several other text-to-speech providers such as PlayHT, ElevenLabs, and Azure, among others [(1)]() [(2)]() . If the problem disappears when switching providers, it may suggest a compatibility or configuration issue specific to the voice settings or the integration with Deepgram. To troubleshoot and prevent such issues, ensure that: - Your transcriber and voice provider configurations are correctly set up in the Vapi dashboard. - The chosen voice provider and voice ID are correctly configured and supported for the intended language or use case . If issues persist, it could be beneficial to explore documentation or community discussions for any known issues with specific voice providers or configurations, like those mentioned in community forums [(3)]() . Remember, for any specific technical issue or bug, it's also a good practice to review the latest documentation or reach out to the platform's community or forums for support, as they may have more up-to-date information or fixes for known issues.
