I've done some testing with SSML:
-
Direct Cartesia API Call: Using this SSML payload worked as expected, producing a 3-second pause.
"Hold on, let me think."
"Alright, I've got it."
-
Via Vapi: The same text is there, but there's no 3s pause. I also patched my assistant with enableSsmlParsing, but that didn't change the output.
Can you confirm if Vapi supports SSML parsing for Cartesia? What configuration or flags are required to make it work?
Thanks.
