There could be several reasons why the initial audio prompt isn't playing when you connect through WebSocket. Here are some common issues and solutions:

Authentication Issues: Ensure that you are using the correct API key and agent ID. For private agents, you need to generate a signed URL using your API key to authenticate the connection.
WebSocket URL Format: Verify that you are using the correct WebSocket URL format. For public agents, you can directly use the agent ID in the WebSocket URL. For private agents, use the signed URL.
Audio Format Settings: Check the audio settings of your agent. Make sure the agent is configured with the correct audio settings, such as "μ-law 8000 Hz" for both the voice section and input format.
Browser and Microphone Permissions: If applicable, ensure that microphone permissions are granted and that you call navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia() before initializing the conversation.
Connection Setup: Ensure that there are no issues with the WebSocket connection setup, such as incorrect protocol upgrade headers or query parameter formatting.

By addressing these areas, you should be able to resolve the issue with the initial audio prompt not playing. If the problem persists, consider checking for any error messages in the console or logs that might provide more insight.

Can you provide me with an example on how I could set up an easy websocket connection on Go?

I'm sorry, but I don't have specific content on setting up a WebSocket connection in Go for ElevenLabs. However, I can guide you on the general steps to establish a WebSocket connection in Go.

Install the WebSocket Package: You can use the gorilla/websocket package, which is a popular choice for WebSocket connections in Go. Install it using:
```
go get github.com/gorilla/websocket
```

Create a WebSocket Connection: Use the package to dial a WebSocket server.

package main

import (
    "log"
    "net/url"
    "github.com/gorilla/websocket"
)

func main() {
    u := url.URL{Scheme: "wss", Host: "api.elevenlabs.io", Path: "/v1/convai/conversation", RawQuery: "agent_id=your-agent-id"}
    log.Printf("connecting to %s", u.String())

    c, _, err := websocket.DefaultDialer.Dial(u.String(), nil)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal("dial:", err)
    }
    defer c.Close()

    // Example of sending a message
    err = c.WriteMessage(websocket.TextMessage, []byte(`{"type": "conversation_initiation_client_data", "conversation_config_override": {"agent": {"prompt": "Your initial prompt"}}}`))
    if err != nil {
        log.Println("write:", err)
        return
    }

    // Example of receiving a message
    _, message, err := c.ReadMessage()
    if err != nil {
        log.Println("read:", err)
        return
    }
    log.Printf("received: %s", message)
}

Handle Messages: You can send and receive messages using WriteMessage and ReadMessage methods.

Make sure to replace "your-agent-id" with your actual agent ID. This example demonstrates a basic connection setup and message handling. You may need to adjust the message format and handling based on your specific requirements and the ElevenLabs API documentation.

I'm getting those errors after sending an audio message: Failed to read message: websocket: close 1006 (abnormal closure): unexpected EOF
2024/12/23 16:00:03 Error in voice chat: websocket: close 1006 (abnormal closure): unexpected EOF

The error you're encountering, "websocket: close 1006 (abnormal closure): unexpected EOF," typically indicates that the connection was closed unexpectedly. Here are a few things you might consider checking or trying:

Audio Format: Ensure that the audio stream you are sending is in the correct format and encoded properly in Base64, as required by the ElevenLabs API.
Connection Handling: Make sure your WebSocket connection is being handled correctly. This includes properly opening, maintaining, and closing the connection.
Ping Messages: Verify that your application is correctly handling ping messages to keep the connection alive. If ping messages stop, the connection might close due to inactivity.
Error Handling: Implement robust error handling to catch and manage any exceptions or errors that occur during the WebSocket communication.
Server Logs: Check the server logs for any additional information or errors that might provide more context on why the connection is closing.
Examples and Documentation: Refer to the ElevenLabs GitHub page for examples and ensure your implementation aligns with the provided examples.

If the issue persists, you might want to review your code for any discrepancies or reach out for further assistance with more specific details about your implementation.
