Below is the code I am using to convert text to audio for a button click using Azure speech service, but I am unable to stop the audio that is playing,
I would like to use the same button to stop the audio while it is playing.
How to have the control over the audio that is playing.

const speechConfig = SpeechSDK.SpeechConfig.fromSubscription("key", "region");

let synthesizer = null;

function initializeSynthesizer() {

 const audioConfig = SpeechSDK.AudioConfig.fromDefaultSpeakerOutput();

 synthesizer = new SpeechSDK.SpeechSynthesizer(speechConfig, audioConfig);

 synthesizer.synthesizing = (s, e) => {

     console.log(`Synthesizing: ${e.result.audioData.byteLength} bytes`);

 };

}

function convertTextToSpeech(text) {

 if (!synthesizer) {

     initializeSynthesizer();

 }

 let selectedLanguage = TranslationModule.getSelectedLanguage(); // Assuming TranslationModule handles language selection

 TranslationModule.translateText(text, selectedLanguage).then(translatedText => {

     synthesizer.speakTextAsync(

         translatedText,

         result => {

             if (result.reason === SpeechSDK.ResultReason.SynthesizingAudioCompleted) {

                 console.log("Speech synthesis completed.");

             } else {

                 console.error("Speech synthesis canceled, " + result.errorDetails);

             }

         },

         error => {

             console.error("Error during speech synthesis:", error);

         }

     );

     console.log("Speech synthesis started:", text); // Log synthesis started

 }).catch(error => {

     console.error('Error translating text for speech:', error);

 });

}

$(document).off('click').on('click', '#btnread', function () {

 let textToRead = this.getAttribute('data-text'); // Assuming the button has a 'data-text' attribute with the text to read

 convertTextToSpeech(textToRead);

});
