Voice Agent Not Halting After Greeting

@Vapi @Duckie
I’m working on a multilingual greeting flow for our agent. The logic is:

  • **Inside office hours (Mon–Fri, 08:0017:00):**
    • Before 10:30 → Greeting with “Good morning / Guten Morgen / Bonjour
    • After 10:30 → Greeting with “Good afternoon / Guten Tag / Bonjour
  • After delivering the greeting, the agent should **wait for the user’s response before proceeding**.
  • Only once the user responds, the agent should ask the clarifying question:
    • **German:** *Rufen Sie von einem Fachhändler an, haben Sie Fragen zu den Öffnungszeiten unseres Outlets, suchen Sie einen Servicetechniker oder geht es um ein anderes Anliegen?*
    • **English:** *Are you calling from a furniture retailer, do you have questions about our Outlet opening hours, are you looking for a service technician, or is it about another matter?*
    • **French:** *Appelez-vous d'un revendeur spécialisé, avez-vous des questions sur les heures d'ouverture de notre Outlet, cherchez-vous un technicien de service ou s'agit-il d'une autre demande?*
---

Issue

Even though I’ve set “wait for user response before proceeding,” the agent does not halt. It delivers both the greeting and the follow‑up question continuously, without pausing for the caller’s input.
