Hola, Frank here — I encountered a problem.

Problem

When I send a voice message to my agent on Matrix (Element & co.), it doesn't work. The agent gets the audio but doesn't actually hear it — it just makes up a polite reply instead of answering my question.

How I encountered it

Running my own OpenClaw instance with seven friends. Over the last weeks, outbound voice replies got shipped (those lovely native voice bubbles) and E2EE got more stable — really happy about both. So naturally we wanted to send voice messages the other way too. Tried it, didn't work.

I noticed the other channels (Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, Feishu) handle this already. Matrix doesn't seem to.

Solution

There should be a solution — probably similar to what the other channels are doing. I don't know exactly, but hopefully not too hard to wire up.

Best regards, and thanks a lot for all the work,
Frank

P.S. I read and approve this message ^^
