Description of the bug:

Has anyone faced the issue where Gemini speaks aloud the tool responses (success:true/false) given to it in a very weird way? Almost in a new language.

Actual vs expected behavior:

Gemini should not speak aloud the tool calls/responses.

Any other information you'd like to share?

No response

currently the best way to handle this is through your system instructions. Try different isntructions along the lines of:

You should not verbalize the tool call response in the conversation. Anything that starts with curly brackets should not be spoken unless expclicitly asked to do so by the user.

This also happens when you send text to the model while it's live. It will speak out the instructions. I have tried lots of techniques like <system_message>, secret message and explained it to not read those aloud. It still does sometimes
