Hi there,
Just want to make sure that when attempting to say “stop” to Mycroft, are you first using the wake word, eg “Hey Mycroft, stop”?
Does the behaviour change depending on how loud the audio is? Is the microphone unable to distinguish your call from the surrounding audio? Or does this happen regardless of the audio levels, or if you are using headphones?
The difficulty in breaking into an audio stream is one of the biggest limitations of standard audio devices being used as a voice assistant. This unfortunately extends to our Mark 1, as they aren’t performing their own echo cancellation, beam-forming, noise suppression etc.
It is something that will be greatly improved with the Mark II, and why we’ve selected hardware that has been specifically designed and built to natively support these features.
