Subject: fix: always use random voice selection for audio generation
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Previously, random voice was only used for regeneration.
Now all audio generation uses a random voice from the available
OpenAI voices for more variety in pronunciation.
