I have a Dell Inspiron 7373 laptop with Brave browser installed. I also have google voice to make calls from my laptop. The microphone says it is turned off in brave browser. I verified that it works in windows and on zoom. I cannot figure out how to enable it in brave.

## Latest status (this comment edited by @bsclifton)
This feature relies on a S… peech API key that we would need to create and pay for on a per-use basis. [As captured below](https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/3725#issuecomment-506915890), @tomlowenthal has looked at this.
At the moment, this is on hold. We have some other features requiring this speech to text API also. But we haven't taken any action as creating a token and installing will have a cost associated with it.
## Original issue details by @MGRussell
This issue was previously opened in the browser-laptop repo [here](https://github.com/brave/browser-laptop/issues/4476) and was archived without resolution with numerous OS/versions chiming in. I am reopening it here, and reporting with Windows 7 with Brave Version 0.61.51 Chromium: 73.0.3683.75 (Official Build) (64-bit). [This](https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/2802) may be a related issue which mentions that Webspeech API is disabled within Brave.
## Description
The browser does not function properly with Duolingo. The site asks for permission to use the microphone and everything seems to work fine, but it seems no input is ever being sent from brave to the site. The site only officially supports chrome and so this is something that would need to be remedied on Brave's end, if the browser is to be capable of using Duolingo.
## Steps to Reproduce
The browser fails on any tests from Duolingo that asks the user to send voice data, 100% of the time.
### Website problems only:
The issue does not resolve when disabling brave shields. This issue is not present on the latest version of Chrome.
Not a easy fix, since it relies on google servers here. (affects Firefox also)
