arXiv:2606.07547v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech-based large language models are typically constrained to spoken replies, which limits their user-facing outputs to what can be verbalized and suppresses text-native capabilities such as code generation, structured analysis, and multi-step reasoning in realtime interaction, for tasks that require persistent, structured, and inspectable intermediate outputs. Existing work improves spoken reasoning or full-duplex turn-taking, but still treats text as a hidden intermediate state or a subordinate modality rather than a first-class output chan
