Microphone button does not start recording

[stanwood77]

Device: Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Lavender (arm64)
Ubuntu Touch Version: OTA-16 Stable
App version: V0.7

Issue: When pressing "microphone button", recording does not start. (nothing happens). If long press on the button, a small settings rectangle appears (see pictures).

Remarks:

Permission to allow domain to access microphone: Yes.
ACRcloud API: Correctly set.
However, in menu "Security" => apps permission => Microphone: Music recognition app does not appear at all. (see picture)

Trouble shooting (unsuccessful): Reinstall app. Clear cache. Check / uncheck "simulation mode".

This app works fine on Vollaphone + Nexus 5. Thank you for your help

Hi, the issue seems to be mainly, that the app cannot get the system permission, to access the microphone... But I am not sure if this is really app-specific. I suspect, it is the system.
Since it is an html5 app which is using the Morph WebEngine, you could check it with Morph-Browser and any online-recorder website. I assume that this won't work either.

It seems that hmtl5 apps on devices, which already got permission in the past, are still able to use the microphone.
So I have currently no idea, how this could be solved.

This may be related:
ubports/morph-browser#399

Thank you for your feedback.
Indeed, You're right.

I've tried https://online-voice-recorder.com.
I gave the access to the microphone, but website just replied that I did not grant the microphone access.

Here are some screenshots.

I will comment the issue 399.

Do you want me to close the issue?

No, this way other users can see, that it is an already know issue.

I'll just chip in: same issue on One plus One. It used to work like a charm on Fairphone 2, and it doesn't work on Oneplus... I don't see how it would be related to Morph, then, unless the recent update to Qt brought these kind of regressions to Morph; in that case I suspect it doesn't work on Fairphone either

For me, this is solved with ubports/morph-browser#399 in current devel images.
@stanwood77 and @Emphrath, could you please test, if it works for you too?

@stanwood77 Yep, it's fixed on halium-devel 1+1 bacon.
