Qwen3-ASR streaming timestamps depend on max_tokens instead of audio time #927
Qwen3-ASR calculates partial streaming timestamps from token-budget progress:
token_count / remaining_tokens * audio_duration
remaining_tokens starts from the generation budget and changes between chunks. This is not audio time, so changing max_tokens changes timestamps for the same audio and generated text.
Reproduction
Run stream_transcribe() on the same file with max_tokens=64 and max_tokens=8192, then compare each event's start_time and end_time.
Actual: partial timestamps change with the token budget. In one 8.57-second test, 31 partial events covered only about the first 0.03 seconds before the final boundary jumped to the end.
Expected: do not expose token-budget positions as audio timestamps. Text-delta events should be untimed unless the model or an aligner provides real alignment. Coarse audio chunk extents can remain timed.
