Google app keyboard problem - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Everywhere else, my keyboard is smooth but in the Google app, the keyboard is lagging. Also, with the sound on, the sound distorts as well.
I am on OOS 3.5.3 with magisk 7.

[Q] Google Speech to text causes audio focus issues

Hi Everyone
I'm having issues with Google Voice Recognition. If I have headphones plugged in and I toggle voice recognition from the soft keyboard (the little mic icon) the media player I have running in the background cuts out. It stays out even after voice recognition has finished listening.
If I toggle voice recognition into listening mode again, the media audio cuts back in until voice recognition stops listening, then it cuts back out. Even apps like Utter! cause this same exact behavior. It seems to be when one of these apps forces the audio to focus on something else. This issue doesn't happen at all if I *don't* have anything plugged into the headphone jack. It works like normal in those cases.
Restarting the media player doesn't fix it. The only ways to fix it are to totally restart the phone, or unplug the headphones, toggle voice recognition, wait for it to stop listening, then plug the headphones back in. Then it all works correctly until the next time voice recognition is toggled. Then the problem happens all over again.
I'm running Beanstalk 4.3 RC1.1 + W03Tweaks v1.6.1 with uneak kernel 2.22. I've tried switching to a different kernel (devil) but I get the same results. I've noticed this problem on both 4.2 and 4.3 rom's for me (Both Beanstalk, haven't tested other roms).
It's driving me crazy since I can't use voice recognition when I'm driving without causing my music to stop. I made a video of what it's doing, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFm-Hk0TADw.

Mic not working except in the camera app

Today people I called couldn't hear me while I could hear them fine. I thought maybe the mic had gone kaput but when I tried the voice recorder app I could hear myself albeit at very very low volume. Then I tried taking a video and the audio was perfectly fine. No recent software updates to the phone apart from updating HTC Backup , HTC Weather , Google Play Music and Google via the Play Store. Obviously the mic is fine (to some degree anyway) so how can I force Android to always use it the way the camera app does? I'm stock at the moment.

Problems with sound and video recording

Since installing Lineage OS, with Pixel launcher, I haven't been able to record video using the stock camera, or any other camera app I've downloaded. I understand that having Ok Google enabled on any screen can interfere with recording, as it grabs the focus/microphone. But even turning off OK Google doesn't help, as I still get errors when trying to record video/sound.
Does anyone have the same issue, and is there any solution? Ideally, I'd like to still have OK Google on the home screen, but if it is interfering with video/audio recording, have it disabled for just that app. But, as I say, I have tried disabling Ok Google hotword activitation for all apps, and it makes no difference. I don't want to uninstall it altogether.
I have the same configuration as you do but I don't get any problem with camera recording.
I use footej camera from play store and not the stock one.
Have you tried reflashing the ROM?

Google Assistant & HTC camera V7.50.658751 Bug

I'm using a Wolla V6.2 (Sense 8/MM6.0.1) custom rom. I don't believe this is rom specific but if I find out otherwise, I'll re-ask this question in the appropriate location.
So here is my issue. Whenever I enable "Say OK Google any time", the feature that allows you to say OK google from any screen, the HTC camera app won't record videos. As soon as I disable the always listening feature from Google Assistant my camera works as usual. I've downloaded some 3rd party camera and they appear to work fine with the Always listening feature enabled, but prefer the HTC camera for video recording. The 60fps 1080p recording is quite good, especially in good lighting. After doing some research it appears to be an issue with both applications trying to use the microphone at the same time. Anyone have any suggestions? Is anyone else experiencing this with Google Assistant always listening mode and the HTC Camera?
I'm using the latest updated Google Assistant and HTC Camera V7.50.658751.
This has been a reported bug as long as I can remember, since before it was Google Assistant (Google Now?). So it's not surprising that the problem persists on Google Assistant.
Don't recall any fix, aside from the workaround of turning off "Say OK Google any time".
Thanks for the response. Its disappointing that there isn't a real solution but at least I'm not alone. I'm going to try to find a solution using Tasker. I'm trying to disable the always listening feature when my camera app is open and re-enable it once I close it. I'll probably take this problems to the Tasker gurus if I can't solve it.

Android DSP question.

Ever since I started using android, my choice for a DSP unit was Noozxoide EIZO-rewire™ PRO. Apparently, since the last update, the software is no longer usable. Lowering the volume only inserts a crappy stuttering sound. Since that app is old (but gold) and not updated, It seems it's finally time to move on. So, what are your takes on DSPs on Android Pie?
I need a module that does not require root or other methods of tampering with the system.
I need a module with profiles for each and every sound output (internal, jack and wireless).
I need it to auto-start on boot and work in the background without needing to set it up, or start it every time I want to use the music player or other media software.
The app mentioned above did everything I needed.
Thank you!
I'm afraid, there are no other rootless solutions for Android 8+. At least I don't know of any working one.

I tried the basic debugging solution... Idk what happened during the update but here goes my log:
>test game - volume slider working
>test youtube - volume slider working
>test sony music - volume slider creates audio glitching
>test google music - volume slider creates audio glitching
>force stop audio engine
>test sony music - volume slider creates audio glitching
>test google music - volume slider working
>force stop sony music
>test sony music - volume slider working
>reboot
>volume slider working globally
So that old but gold engine is still up for the task... Problem fixed,
UPDATE 2: problem occurring after system-wide back-up using the google back-up option. It seems it tampers with the normal operation of the integrated audio API. So, after a full back-up, a reboot and/or force restart of the DSP engine is needed. Also, sometimes after a reboot, the system is not operational again, then, the only fix is force stopping and restarting the process for the audio processor.
Will still keep an eye on the thread, maybe there are rootless solutions that could still work...
UPDATE 3. The problems persisted so I tried to access the Noozxoide EIZO-rewire™ PRO control panel from the music app (Sony Music Port - lastest version) and surprise, there was a new basic equalizer there that I never installed. It seems that Xiaomi pushed a new equalizer system to our phones that was interfering with my processor. I checked the system apps and found a new MusicFX app there. I disabled it and it seems everything is now working as intended.
The point is that for the past few days I tried to find an app that could replace EIZO, and no luck. There is no rootless system audio processor available, except those crappy riced apps from the store. So, if you want to get the most out of your audio, the solution was now found. This rootless mod almost gives you the sound quality you'll get from an iPhone 6s (mono speaker) and great sound from headphones/wireless devices.
This thread can now be closed!
