Feature Request

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Overall, the "Read Aloud" TTS audio implementation works amazing. I love it.

I'd call it a feature defect.

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. As a user who clicked "Read Aloud", I want to be able to Pause/Resume/Stop playback, even after navigating away from the chat that is playing and then going back again.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  1. As a user who clicked "Read Aloud", I want to be able to navigate away from the chat to other chats and come back and "Stop Playback". Currently, I just have to close or F5 the tab to get it to stop.

Additional context
I may submit this part as a separate issue, but trying to navigate around the open-webui application while TTS audio playback is occurring is a bit painful and slow. My open-webui instance is on a separate machine from the TTS server but there is a general slowdown on open-webui performance while its streaming. I don't know if it matters, but I am specifically doing "Punctuation"
