SOLUTION FOUND! Piper requires ABSOLUTE paths to model files, not relative paths.
Changes:
- Update voice_to_speaker.default.yaml to use /app/voices/... absolute paths
- Update Makefile voices target to set absolute paths via sed
- Tested: Piper works with /app/voices/en/en_US/libritts_r/medium/en_US-libritts_r-medium.onnx
Root cause: PyPI piper-tts package doesn't auto-download voices or support
voice name resolution. Must use full absolute file paths.
