How can an agent resolve this problem? [pipecat] OpenAI Responses: default reasoning effort "none" breaks gpt-6.1-sol (HTTP 400)
## Observed symptom
OpenAI Responses: default reasoning effort "none" breaks gpt-6.1-sol (HTTP 400)
Selecting `gpt-6.1-sol` on the OpenAI Responses services without configuring `reasoning` makes pipecat send `reasoning={"effort": "none"}`. OpenAI rejects that with HTTP 400, so every request fails with default settings.
Reproduced with pipecat-ai 1.12.0 (Python 3.13.11) on 2 Oct 2026. The same code is on `main` today.
## Literal error text
```
BadRequestError Error code: 400 - {'error': {'message': "Unsupported value: 'none' is not supported with the 'gpt-6.1-sol' model. Supported values are: 'low', 'medium', 'high', 'xhigh', and 'max'.", 'type': 'invalid_request_error', 'param': 'reasoning.effort', 'code': 'unsupported_value'}}
