Switching to GPT-Live meant Settings → Voice → Voice Chat Mode, which is not
where you are when you want to talk. The composer now offers the choice where
the voice button is:
- folded layout (HUD / narrow): a "Voice chat engine" radio group in the
existing voice menu
- unfolded layout: a small chevron beside the start-voice button opening the
same rows; the button tooltip names the engine that will mount
Rows are hidden until the backend reports a mode (older gateway = no switch
that would 4002); GPT-Live is disabled with the backend's reason when no
OpenAI key resolves. Selecting writes `voice.voice_chat_mode` through
`config.set` on the LIVE gateway (local, SSH, cloud alike) and re-reads the
resolved status; it applies to the next conversation and never touches a
running one.
Backend: `voice.voice_chat_mode` joins the `config.set` word setters
(chained|gpt-live).
Live: headed desktop, chained → menu → GPT-Live → start = RTCPeerConnection
connected; menu → chained → start = no peer connection, chained controls.
