Blog: reliable article voice mode that stops when you leave
Article voice mode now starts, pauses, and recovers cleanly, and narration always stops when you switch companion modes, navigate away, or refresh — so audio and assistant state never get stuck between sessions. Playback failures now surface a clear, retryable message instead of leaving a silent player.
- Switching from Listen to Explain, changing pages, or refreshing now stops any playing narration instead of leaving it running in the background.
- Audio output and player state no longer carry over between articles or sessions.
- Playback that fails to start now shows a recoverable error you can retry.
