[Bug]: Qwen3-Omni /audio/transcriptions not supported #17698

Description

What happened?

We host Qwen3-Omni via vLLM. When you try to call the /audio/transcriptions endpoint via LiteLLM, the request is successfully put through, and the model creates the transcriptions accordingly ("POST /audio/transcriptions HTTP/1.0" 200 OK).

Something happens in LiteLLM after the POST request is successfully made, so it returns:

500: litellm.BadRequestError: Hosted_vllmException - The model does not support Transcriptions API

This is very frustrating to see, especially when you see the model doing the transcriptions.
"mode": "audio_transcription" is also set in model_info.

Relevant log output
