Dicio can't connect to internet

[riumudutraz]

As soon as I say the wakeword or tap the mic icon it says it can't connect to internet. Could it be because of the vpn or something like that?

Thanks

You mean that when a skill is invoked (e.g. "what's the weather"), the skill says that it can't connect to the internet? Or is it the STT that can't connect to the internet?

As soon as it recognizes the wakeword, the app opens up and prompts "Connection error - Dicio could not reach internet. Please check your connection and try again". It does the same if I tap the mic inside the app.
It works perfectly with text input tho, even on tasks that involve internet connection (e.g. looking for something on Wikipedia or tell the
weather).

What Android Version are you on? I'm seeing this on a Lenovo ThinkSmart with LineageOS 15.1/Android 8.1, but i'm pretty sure the error message is wrong (and it only happens when wake word is enabled), it seems that the wake word is blocking the microphone for vosk:

All my other Devices have Android 14 or 15, there it works fine...
