描述

This is an enhancement suggestion. Currently we wait until wake work feedback (the "yes" sound) finishes then connect to AVS and then stream recorded voice. Connecting to AVS isn't always fast, can be seconds, and that causes a delay in Alexa respond - very often in my experience. Eventually, we can connect to AVS earlier and make Alexa feel more responsive. Let's start playing "yes" in parallel in another thread while connecting to AVS immediately after the wake word is detected. Then the sound playback thread needs to join back before we start recording and send speech to AVS.

研究方向
Review the existing code for audio playback and AVS connection logic, likely in the main module or audio handling file. Identify where the wake word sound is played and where the connection to AVS is established. Look at the threading implementation to ensure safe parallel execution. Check the issue comments for any additional context or proposed solutions.
