Describe the bug:

Dear sir, thank you for such a great product and a hard work (it took me 15 months to get it working. Not on raspberry, but on OrangePi)

When assistant plays custom response defined in config.yaml, it uses mp3 file. It takes about a second to initialize the sound, so I am loosing beginning of sentence.

Is there any way how to insert about a second of empty sound output before each mp3 playback?
