Stream audio in 4096-sample sub-chunks for immediate HA playback

Previously the entire synthesized audio for a sentence was sent as one
AudioChunk event. HA buffers until it arrives in full, so playback didn't
start until synthesis was complete. Splitting into 4096-sample chunks lets
HA begin playing as data arrives.
