### Question

Describe your question. Provide details if available.



I was checking OpenAI's Dashboard to check the traces, and it shows that my Realtime Traces are not appearing on the dashboard.

I used to be able to see them with the proper traces up until 25th of September, I was using version `0.3.0` of the Library.



I am providing the following object to the Runner method



```

{

    "model_settings": {

    "voice": "ash",

    "turn_detection": "server_vad",

    "model_name": "gpt-realtime",

    "tracing": {

            "workflow_name": "Realtime Workflow",

            "group_id": "123",

            "metadata": {

                "site": "test.com

            }

        }

    }

}

```



I even set the default values of the tracing object in the `DEFAULT_MODEL_SETTINGS` at `agents/realtime/openai_realtime.py`, but I still could not see the traces in the dashboard.



I removed any `set_tracing_export_api_key()` and associated code from my codebase assuming it would force using the DEFAULT_MODEL_SETTINGS.



I would like to know how to force tracing for my Realtime flow and whether there are some prerequisites to tracing that I am not following.



Thank you
