Description of the issue:
Microphone stopped working with YouTube search. It actually hears what I say, puts it on the screen, and then chimes like it’s about to search, then nothing happens. This used to work.
Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3.
I do the same thing I’ve always have, not it does not work.
Actual Result (gifs and screenshots are welcome!):
I see the microphone working, it displays my question I asked with my voice, chimes and nothing happens.
Expected result:
This never used to happen, after the chime, I’d get the search result. Reproduces how often:
Every time
Operating System and Brave Version(See the About Brave page in the main menu):
I am experiencing the same issue, I work in IT as a Shift Lead for IT Help Desk. I am currently investigating this issue. It seems to be an issue with the YouTube Web Browser Voice to Text. If you do it in the YouTube App it seems to work just fine. This is most likely an issue with the YouTube Website itself. If I come across any further information I will let you know. You may be able to open the “Microsoft Store” and install the YouTube app to use as a work around for now. Otherwise there are extensions that you can install that will work with it as well, Looking forwarded to figuring out what the fix for this will be.
Exact same issue here. And the Youtube App is not an option. They flood you with ads every 45 seconds. Unacceptable.
“RESOLVED”
I turned off “Brave Shields” (Brave icon to the right of the address bar) and it worked! I then turned the shields back on and it still works!
