client.audio.transcriptions.create receive different results depending on OS

Describe the bug

I'm making a transcription of audio using the transcriptions create method, but even running with the same audio, the same configuration, and the same Python version, I have different results depending on the OS, and to be more precise, when I am running into a windows OS the result is correct, but when running into Linux or Mac, the results is wrong. Some examples of what happened with the transcriptions:

Windows: ok, I will do that, thank you for your support!

Linux and Mac ok, I will do that, do that, do that, do that, do that, do that, do that

Information about the OS that runs the tests: Windows: Windows 11 Home Single Language (version: 23H2) (running inside wsl2 with ubuntu 22.04 distro) (running local) MAC: macOS (version: 14.4.1) (running local) Linux: Amazon Linux 2 - (running inside ECS)

Please, let me know if need more information than that.

To Reproduce

1. open local audio in format .ogg as binary ("rb"):

   with open('audio.ogg', 'rb') as opened_audio:

2. file the params with the following params:

           transcription_params = {
            'model': 'whisper-1',
            'file': opened_audio,
            'temperature': 0.0,
            'language': 'pt',
            'response_format': 'verbose_json'
        }

3. run as below in different's OS a couple of audios and compare the results:

  from openai import OpenAI

   with open('audio.ogg', 'rb') as opened_audio:
        transcription_params = {
            'model': 'whisper-1',
            'file': opened_audio,
            'temperature': 0.0,
            'language': 'pt',
            'response_format': 'verbose_json'
        }

        OpenAI().audio.transcriptions.create(**transcription_params)

Code snippets

from openai import OpenAI

   with open('audio.ogg', 'rb') as opened_audio:
        transcription_params = {
            'model': 'whisper-1',
            'file': opened_audio,
            'temperature': 0.0,
            'language': 'pt',
            'response_format': 'verbose_json'
        }

Thanks for reporting, we'll investigate. I'm curious if you tried making the same request without using the SDK?

Hello, Robert, thanks for your return... I tested it now via the endpoint via request instead of the SDK and the behavior is the same (tried both in python and postman).

Sorry for the delayed follow up, did you ever figure it out?

If not, I would recommend reposting on the OpenAI Discord server.
