Summary

  • Both backends silently dropped the language parameter — it was accepted by generate() but never forwarded to the underlying Qwen3-TTS model, causing it to default to "Auto" detection which frequently confuses Portuguese for Spanish
  • Added LANGUAGE_CODE_TO_NAME mapping (ISO 639-1 → full language name) to both PyTorch and MLX backends, matching the format Qwen3-TTS expects (e.g. "pt""portuguese")
  • PyTorch backend: passes language= to generate_voice_clone()
  • MLX backend: passes lang_code= to all 4 model.generate() call sites
  • Frontend: auto-syncs the generation form's language dropdown with the selected voice profile's language via a new useEffect

Test plan

  • Select a Portuguese voice profile → language dropdown should auto-sync to Portuguese
  • Generate speech in Portuguese → output should sound Portuguese, not Spanish
  • Switch to English profile → language dropdown syncs to English, generation works normally
  • Test with other supported languages (Chinese, Japanese, etc.)
  • Check backend logs for any language-related errors

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

The language parameter was accepted by both backends' generate() methods
but never forwarded to the underlying TTS models. This caused the model
to default to "Auto" language detection, which frequently confused
Portuguese for Spanish due to lexical similarity.

- Add LANGUAGE_CODE_TO_NAME mapping (ISO 639-1 → full name) to both
  PyTorch and MLX backends, matching what Qwen3-TTS expects
- Pass language to generate_voice_clone() in PyTorch backend
- Pass lang_code to all model.generate() call sites in MLX backend
- Auto-sync generation form language dropdown with selected voice
  profile's language in FloatingGenerateBox
