Firefox 26 has got the listening button. Chrome as well.Even OPERA 12.17 has got the button! It is obviously an error in the newest Opera.

It's missing with the regular NPAPI Flash but it appears when you use the Pepper Flash (currently in beta).
I have already reported this issue as OTW-9453 before...
Here's an earlier thread: https://forums.opera.com/topic/3127/google-translate-has-no-voice

I have just discovered that changing User-agent to Firefox fixed this issue. When I tried Chrome - no effect. Firefox - this is a surprise - it works!

So it looks like google is browser sniffing again.

On the Google Translator, there's a note for Opera Users http://add0n.com/google-translator.html?version=0.2.5
To enable text-to-speech feature of the extension you need to have a media player plug-in (mp3 supported) installed on your Opera browser. Please follow this instruction to install QuickTime plug-in.
I have my user-agent option set at default. When I installed that plug-in, if I just double click before a word, the word becomes highlighted, I then get the word translated in a pop-up and there is a voice option that works -- I can hear the voice. However, if I select and copy more than one word -- maybe a sentence -- and press enter, you go to a website for the translation, and there's no voice option. However, if I change the user-agent to Firefox, then I get the option for the voice feature, as well as the translation of the sentence on that web page.
I'm not sure I like having the user-agent setting Firefox, so I'm keeping the user-agent at "default" and am satisfied with just being able to get a one word translation by voice via the popup.

I have the listen button in Internet Explorer however Opera does not have it. Maybe browser snuffing again?
