Hi everyone, I’m running Linux mint and I play a couple online multiplayer ghost hunting games: phasmophobia, demonologist mainly. Those games have mechanics where certain items need voice input to work properly so you can “talk to the ghosts”. My USB mic is displayed in the game as an input but the game doesn’t actually get any input from my mic. I know my mic works because it works in discord while playing those games. Any help would be appreciated!

    Apparently you can set Phasmophobia to use “VOSK” for the speech recognition in settings, which is built-in, and does not rely on a built-in windows feature. It’s not as good, but works on linux and pre-windows-10.

    When I played, you could only use windows recognition, so that’s new.

      Thank you! Vosk seems to work so far. I was able to use the spirit box item and it showed it was reading my input.
