Title: Help Needed: Deepgram Code Picks Up Speaker Audio Instead of My Voice

[pannacodebase]

Hi All,

I'm having trouble with my Deepgram code and need some help. At first, the code works well—it listens to my voice and responds correctly. For example, when I say "hi," it repeats "hi" back to me. However, after that first response, the microphone starts picking up sound from the speakers instead of my voice. This means the system begins responding to the speaker's voice instead of mine.

Technology : Deepgram Nova 2, Deepgram Real time speech to text, we are using webrtc as well

The code has both speech-to-text (STT) and text-to-speech (TTS) functions, but after the initial response, the microphone doesn’t mute. As a result, it keeps hearing the audio output (like "hi") from the speakers and keeps repeating it in a loop. Essentially, the system is stuck listening to the output audio instead of my input, leading to repeated responses based on what it hears from the speakers rather than my actual voice. I would really appreciate any help in fixing this issue. Thank you!
