Questions and requests about TTS models are directed here, like #13857, but here nothing much is going on... So, are there any plans to support TTS models, like qwen3-TTS?

I found MLX-Audio and noticed it has already integrated almost all mainstream TTS/STT models, most notably Qwen3-TTS. Is there any chance we could see this integrated into Ollama, It would be a game-changer for local voice interaction
