JS Azure Speech SDK Text to Speech (control volume for AudioConfig)

Question

Hi Team,

I'm working with azure text to speech service for enabling voice based outputs. Using Speech SDK Javascript.

For outputing the sound, im creating fromSpeakerOutput instance with custom iPlayer (as in docs).

   const browserSound = new speechsdk.SpeakerAudioDestination();  
   const audioConfig = speechsdk.AudioConfig.fromSpeakerOutput(browserSound);  
   var synthesizer = new speechsdk.SpeechSynthesizer(speechConfig, audioConfig);  

Issue is, i need some iPlayer customizations like pause, resume, stop current sound. I could see only pause and resume. Is there any way i could cancel current playing sound ?

Thanks.

Hi, the only reference I've seen so far is pause and resume. I don't think this scenario is supported currently. However, I'm making some inquiries and will share updates as soon as I have more information.

Stopping audio playing is supported.

You need to create a SpeechSDK.SpeakerAudioDestination() object and use it to create audioConfig like this.

var

Then you can call player.pause() and player.resume() to pause and resume the playback.

You can find more info from the doc and sample.
