If Kõnele is launched through AnySoftKeyboard dictation, it opens a web search instead of inputting text

[marmistrz]

Kõnele (using WhisperInput from this fork) is set as my speech-to-text provider in the system settings. I installed AnySoftKeyboard from F-Droid.

If I tap the mic icon in the AOSP keyboard, it launches Konele speak & swipe and works as expected.
If I tap the mic icon in AnySoftKeyboard, it launches the Konele popup "Say what to search" and a web search is executed instead of inputting the text.

I think it's rather a question to AnySoftKeyboard: what is the exact semantics of its mic icon (under various conditions, e.g. Google's recognizer is not present). ASK has a lot of (old) related open issues, so the situation seems to be unclear and needs to be documented first by ASK:

• Speech to text not working, needs com.google.android.voicesearch AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard#3230
• Voice Input not working without com.google.android.voicesearch AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard#1672
• Google Voice Input missing dialog should not be interactive AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard#716
• Voice typing is only available via Google Voice Typing AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard#927
• ASK offers to download com.google.android.voicesearch but it cannot be found on Google Play AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard#2686

However, if the Kõnele pop-up performs a web search, instead of returning the transcription to the caller, then this might be an issue in Kõnele, but this should first be demonstrated with other apps. I wasn't able to observe it now, e.g. in GMail, SwiftKey, etc.

Interesting. What is the functional difference with original WhisperInput?

As far as I can see (from the source code comparison alex-vt/WhisperInput@main...gkfabs:WhisperInput:mine/main) the fork offers multilinguality. But it's better to ask @gkfabs, and move the discussion to a different thread.
