Hi @SamKr I have the same issue recently, and I solved making a Reconfiguration of the Locales with the next command

```
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

```

I was following the next link

[picroft-not-picking-up-voice](https://community.openconversational.ai/t/picroft-not-picking-up-voice/4314/5)

I really dont know how this resolve it 😅 but it works for me. I use the option “all” locales and it take a bit long to finish the reconfiguration but mycroft started listening to me 😀

About the configuration file, I found it in …/mycroft/configurations/mycroft.conf

PS: sorry if i struggle with the english 😶
