Hi team! I have a question about the "Keep Alive" feature for STT (https://developers.deepgram.com/docs/keep-alive).
The doc says that when keep alive is used, "pause" is provided to not incurring the cost of silence.
Microphone data continues to be sent to the server, but I hope that silence will not incur any costs. Is this possible using keep alive?

I tested this demo page, https://aura-tts-demo.deepgram.com/#, and it was awesome!
I continued the conversation with the microphone turned on, but I am curious as to whether the STT fee will be charged during silence (i.e., when Asteria answers).
