Description

If you would want to prioritize this feature work, please vote and optionally, provide a user story.

Feature Request

Currently, Direct Line Speech do not ACK any outgoing message, including recognized speech or simple text message.

Since outgoing activities are not ACK-ed, we do not have the activity ID or the correct timestamp.

We workaround it by timestamping all incoming activities with local timestamp, and faking a read receipt (a.k.a. echo back activity).

Code at /directlinespeech/src/DirectLineSpeech.js.

Research direction

Start with /directlinespeech/src/DirectLineSpeech.js and trace how outgoing recognized-speech and text activities are handled. Confirm the Direct Line Speech acknowledgement behavior and define completion as receiving an activity ID and correct timestamp for outgoing messages without relying on local timestamps or a faked read receipt.
