The cluster-wide pod cannot reach BLUEJAY-WS speaches on 10.0.56.20:9200
because the rootless+host-net podman setup binds 127.0.0.1 only on the
WSL machine; nothing on the LAN-facing interface. The openai-compatible
Backend value also relied on a Common change still on feat/shared-indexing
rather than master, so the deployed image's Shared.Speech only knows
the FC-native /align shape.
Disable Speech:Alignment for now. EstimatedAlignmentClient kicks in and
keeps /api/v1/voices/preview-with-timings returning word-aligned JSON,
just with uniform-distribution timings instead of real Whisper output.
Re-enable once: (a) Common's openai-compatible Backend lands on master
and a new TtsReader image ships, or (b) we point at a LAN-routable
backend (e.g. an aiohttp /align shim, or speaches running on a node
that's actually reachable from cluster pods).
