Title: Listening suspended
Post by: stolzy on April 25, 2022, 11:26:59 AM
Lots of threads on this, but apparently no resolution.

Anyone have a clue?

Are you running the third-party "VAICOM" plugin?

Yes, but the problem remains even when that isn't running.

[Edit: having checked, if the Vaicom plugin is disabled VA works fine.  Switching to a 'non-Vaicom' profile on the other hand doesn't solve the problem.]

Many people seem to be having this problem for years.  Kind of obviates the whole point of Vaicom.

Unfortunately that is indeed an issue a number of users have reported with that third-party plugin.

The plugin is instructing VoiceAttack to suspend listening, irrespective of the current active profile.


There may be a setting within the plugin's custom configuration window(s) that affects this; you'll want to ask the author of the plugin about that.

Their support page (https://www.vaicompro.com/support.html) lists a thread on the Eagle Dynamics forums (https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=198297), and an email address.

There is an unofficial, community-run Discord (https://discord.gg/wT8sHHP) as well, which may be able to assist with certain issues.

Thanks for chipping in.  I've seen those threads, but there is scant help to be found on this issue.

I have contacted the author, but still await a response.  This is strange since many people seem to have the same issue and it has been going on for some time.  Maybe he/she has other issues that prevent them attending to this.

It's a pity though , since Vaicom was such a good idea and a lot of work has obviously gone into it.  But for the present it appears to be fubar.
