SUMMARY
For sometime now I have been unable to use the Remote input feature of KDE
connect in conjunction Google voice typing from my phone. In the past this was
a reliable method of speech to text for Linux so that the impaired could write
documents without difficultly. Currently any attempt to do so appears to
simply never be transmitted to the PC other forms of Remote input (remote mouse
and typing via the standard phone keyboard) appear to function normally
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.Install and pair KDE connect on a PC and Android phone.
2. Open anything that can accept text on a pc and switch to Google voice
typing inside of remote input on the KDE connect Android app.
3. Speak to the phone with a test phrase of your choice
OBSERVED RESULT
Google Voice typing appears to function yet the spoken phrase does not appear
on the pc.
EXPECTED RESULT
the spoken phrase does not appear on the pc.
