TTS could not be completed
Error message
TTS could not be completed
What it means
Catch-all around the workspace TTS flow: converting the chat's text to speech (provider call, buffering, or cache write) threw, so no audio can be returned and a 500 'TTS could not be completed' is sent after logging.
