very strange homey always switches off the microphone while I switch it on again.  
I use the mirophone regularly.  
I am not happy that Athome has pulled out the plug on speech, they don’t keep their promises.

Homey doesn’t do this by itself, mine stays on indefinitely, make sure you don’t have a flow which turns off the microphone.
