Description
Hi Docling team,
I'm encountering an issue where `DocumentConverter` seems to hang indefinitely when converting a PDF with `do_picture_description=True` and `picture_description_options=granite_picture_description`, even when using the CUDA accelerator. The process starts but never completes, even after a long time (one night) and no error is raised.
**Details:**
* CUDA is correctly installed and detected.
* Removing `do_picture_description=True` makes the conversion complete successfully.
* No exception or logging output indicates what the hang might be related to.
* I'm on Windows 10
I'm happy to share the PDF file privately if needed for debugging.
Thanks in advance for your help!
