摘要
Realtime omni-modal LMs support speech-centric conversations where users stream inputs, hear generated audio, and interrupt freely. Existing Omni-LM serving systems still rely on throughput-oriented LLM scheduling and LRU KV offloading. These policies ignore audio playback and multi-turn reuse: they may generate tokens far beyond what users hear, wasting work after barge-in, and evict KV state needed in the next turn. OmniCast is an interaction-aware serving system for realtime Omni-LM interaction. It exposes playback progress, speech activity, and barge-in events to the serving pipeline. The scheduler prioritizes first-audio and near-underrun sessions while limiting generation beyond the playback frontier. The KV manager uses next-use-aware eviction and preloads likely-needed KV during user speech to hide reload latency. On vLLM-Omni, OmniCast improves realtime serving across two Omni-LMs and mixed workloads. It lowers P90 audio TTFP by $1.55\times$ on average and up to $2.21\times$, while improving completed-request throughput by $1.15\times$ on average and up to $1.56\times$, and moves most KV reload work off the next-turn critical path.
