Summary

On OpenClaw 2026.5.19, isolated cron jobs with delivery.mode="announce" to Discord fail at delivery with:

OutboundDeliveryError: discordVoice outbound adapter is unavailable.

The agent run itself succeeds and produces a normal text summary, but outbound delivery is marked failed.

Environment

• OpenClaw: 2026.5.19 (a185ca2)
• Channel: Discord
• Cron job: isolated, announce delivery to Discord channel
• Config: messages.tts.auto = "always"

Repro Steps

1. Configure Discord channel/account and a cron job with delivery.mode="announce" to a Discord text channel.
2. Set messages.tts.auto to "always".
3. Run the cron job manually with openclaw cron run <job-id>.
4. Inspect run history with openclaw cron runs --id <job-id> --expect-final.

Observed

• Cron execution produces valid summary text.
• Final run status contains:
  • error: OutboundDeliveryError: discordVoice outbound adapter is unavailable.
  • delivery.resolved.ok: true (discord target resolved)
  • delivery.delivered: false
  • delivery.fallbackUsed: true

Expected

For text-only cron announce delivery targets, outbound should use normal Discord text path and succeed (or gracefully bypass voice route), even when messages.tts.auto="always".

Additional Notes

• Setting messages.tts.auto to non-always mode (e.g. tagged) avoided the failure in local testing.
• This looks like a regression in Discord + cron + auto-TTS delivery routing.
