Document the draft_interval_ms compatibility exception.

Removing draft_interval_ms from AsrResults and AsrResultsUpdate leaves the field undocumented. The endpoint reference treats any unknown field as invalid_config, which closes the connection with 4400 (api-reference/endpoint/websocket/asr-realtime.mdx, line 123). Its configure rule rejects unknown fields as well (line 202). A client that still sends results.draft_interval_ms therefore matches the documented rejection rule. The PR states that the server accepts and ignores this field for existing clients. The schema and endpoint docs need to state that exception, or they describe behavior that conflicts with the stated compatibility.

Add the exception at the object level in both schemas, and name the same exception in the endpoint unknown-field rules for both config and configure.

Suggested schema note 
     AsrResults:
       type: object
+      description: |
+        `draft_interval_ms` is no longer defined. Existing clients may still send it; the server accepts and ignores it.

only still-valid issues, skip the rest with a brief reason, keep changes
minimal, and validate.

Review comment at @api-reference/asyncapi-asr-realtime.yml at line 1162:
Update the AsrResults and AsrResultsUpdate schema descriptions to document that
existing clients may send draft_interval_ms and the server accepts and ignores
it. Update the endpoint unknown-field rules for both config and configure to
state this same exception while preserving rejection behavior for other unknown
fields.

review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli?utm_source=ghpr

You need a [Fish Audio API key](/developer-guide/getting-started/api-key) and a WebSocket client that can set request headers. The API key travels in a request header, so connect from your server, not from a browser; to capture audio in a browser, relay it through your server as in [Transcribe a live audio stream](/developer-guide/sdk-guide/cookbook/realtime-transcription#capture-from-a-browser-microphone). The examples on these pages use Python with `websockets` and `msgpack`, and Node.js with `ws` and `@msgpack/msgpack`.

This endpoint is separate from the realtime endpoints of the [compatible APIs](/developer-guide/compat/capabilities), which use manual commit and have no server-side turn detection.

Each open connection counts against the same concurrency limit as your other API requests, from the moment it opens until it closes, even while you send no audio. See [Concurrent request limits](/developer-guide/models-pricing/pricing-and-rate-limits#concurrent-request-limits). A session cannot be resumed: a new connection is a new session.

Sessions are billed per second of session duration, as Realtime ASR. See [ASR pricing](/developer-guide/models-pricing/pricing-and-rate-limits#automatic-speech-recognition-asr-models).

The `101 Switching Protocols` response carries an `x-request-id` header, and so do the capacity 429 and 503 refusals. It is the same value as `request_id` in `session_started`, `error` and `session_done`. Log it, and include it when you contact support. Refusals for the key, balance and your concurrency limit (401, 402 and concurrency 429) happen before a session is assigned and carry no `x-request-id`.

Each draft **replaces** the previous one for the turn. Drafts are best effort, sent at most every `draft_interval_ms`, and only with `results.drafts: true`. Turn them on for live captions; an agent that acts on `eager_end_of_turn` and `committed` does not need them. Drafts may pause during long background sounds and resume when `user_turn_taken` comes.

`auto` mode only, while your agent is speaking (see [`agent_speaking`](#agent_speaking)): the user acknowledged ("mm-hm", "yeah", "right") without taking the turn. Keep talking. One message per acknowledgement. It always comes before the named turn's `committed`, and it can come before that turn's `speech_start`. A backchannel counts for the turn that contains it; that turn commits with `user_turn: false` and `turn_kind: "backchannel"` unless the user goes on to take the turn. A turn that opened in `vad` or `manual` mode never counts an acknowledgement. When your agent is not speaking, an acknowledgement takes the turn (`user_turn_taken`).
