Re: How to get rid of lengthy pause at end of sentences for speechSynthesis.speak()?

[guest271314]

I posted the error message. There is no "GenericDelimiters", the
module name apparently needs to be used.

Why would I need a speech synthesis interface when I can already get
the audio directly in the browser?

What I'm actually working on is adjusting the code in piper.conf to
send the raw audio to the currently focused tab when
window.speechSynthesis.speak() is executed in the focused tab.

The I can use Web Audio API to play the s16le as Float32Array's directly.
