A simple action to simulate Media Response error

Error related to serving Media files

• It can be simulated on speaker based devices like Google Home Mini and surface based devices like smart displays. But it works fine on Android devices.

• In this error, the action speaks the intended repsonse followed by Sorry, something went wrong. When you're ready, give it another try. and then starts playing the media files.

• Expected behaviour should be playing the media file without this error message if no error persists. Otherwise throw appropriate error.
