When trying to use Google voice in opera or do a spoken text translation in Google translator it is as if opera doesn't hear. Opera version 48.0.2685.52 (PGO)

It works in all other browsers. I am really liking opera now and don't want to go back to chrome, as that browser has become stuck in 1999

If somebody can help or has a suggestions. Thanks

What OS? Text speaking on Google translator seems to be working here on Windows 10.

@micha6 It's a regular version or it's a N one?

Hmm, let's check if I understood the problem correctly. On Google translator you are clicking on the icon to hear the word and there is no sound or you are trying to use a microphone to ' write' something and what you speak is not recognized?

i am trying to use the microphone to dictate the translation it doesn't work. Also, when I use a web page or opera extension that needs to use the microphone, like Google voice, its though as if the Mic doesn't exist. In chrome, exploder and Firefox it works fine.

@micha6 I think this has been asked before to be implemented but if I remember correctly it wasn't in the priority list back then. Anyway it doesn't work here either, latest O49beta x64, Win7 x64. I can click on the microphone on the left but I don't get a notification about allowing the microphone, nor can you whitelist the site manually.

P.S. Reported it via the smiley method.

@micha6 In this case, I don't know. I don't even have a microphone to test it.

Maybe you need to allow the page to use the mic?
