Does the SimpleTextInput sample work for voice dictation since iOS 8?

I made a slightly modified version of SimpleTextInput and it used to work with voice dictation.

Lately, I think since iOS 8, InsertText is still getting called by voice dictation actions, but strings of spaces-only are getting passed to the: string text parameter, not the actual text spoken (which did used to happen). textView.text is however still getting set, sometimes and somehow, I'm not clear how.

I went back to the original sample, and discovered it works fine with dictation on iOS 8... so the problem is mine (and I'll close this issue)...

However it is still a problem, even though the sample here doesn't suffer from it. I have almost identical code, but I'm trying to get the dictated text back and inserted into a non-standard control.

I think my problem has to do with threading and the asynchronous way in which ReplaceRange gets called by the iOS text system.
