- `[2026-07-09]` **FP8 breaks mOrpheus audio-token generation.** `--quantization fp8` on the 3B → 0 valid SNAC frames even at GREEDY (degenerate audio+text mix, no start-of-speech); bf16 is clean (28/28 frames). Quant-breaks- TTS, same class as the Angel-NVFP4 lesson below. bf16 is REQUIRED (so the operator's "util 0.1" wish is moot — the bf16 weights alone are 6.6GB). NB the raw-token benchmark RTF 0.50 was fp8+graphs = never real.
