Bug Report: Transcription Connection Becomes Unresponsive
Description:
During an active Parakeet session, transcription stopped working, and Parakeet repeatedly displayed connection warnings for both the microphone and screen-sharing transcription streams.
Error messages displayed:
[Microphone] The transcription connection looks unresponsive — trying to recover...[Screen Sharing] The transcription connection looks unresponsive — trying to recover...
What happened:
Both microphone and screen-sharing transcription became unresponsive at approximately the same time. Parakeet attempted to recover the connections automatically, but transcription was interrupted.
Environment:
Device: Mac
OS: macOS
Parakeet desktop application
Microphone access enabled
Screen sharing/system audio being used
Expected behavior:
Microphone and screen-sharing audio should continue to be transcribed throughout the session without the transcription connection becoming unresponsive.
Actual behavior:
Both transcription connections became unresponsive, and Parakeet displayed recovery notifications.
Screenshot:
The attached screenshot clearly shows both the [Microphone] and [Screen Sharing] errors.
Additional notes:
Because both transcription streams reported the same connection issue simultaneously, this may be related to the transcription connection/service rather than an individual microphone input problem.
Impact: High - this can interrupt live transcription during calls/interviews when continuous transcription is required.
