Introduction
The "Not enough speech detected" error typically occurs when the system is unable to properly capture your voice during a test or recording. This issue can arise due to improper hardware setup or microphone issues. Follow the steps below to resolve the issue.
Common Reasons for the Issue
Improper Microphone Setup: The selected microphone or headphones may not be working properly.
Use of Incompatible Earphones: Mobile earphones may not be suitable for capturing speech on a laptop.
Low Volume or Background Noise: The microphone may not be picking up your voice clearly due to low volume or noisy surroundings.
Step-by-Step Troubleshooting Guide
Step 1: Disconnect Headphones
Disconnect any headphones or earphones from your device and try using the built-in microphone to check if the issue persists.
Step 2: Avoid Using Mobile Earphones
It is recommended not to use mobile earphones with your laptop for speech detection. Instead, use the built-in microphone or a compatible headset with a dedicated microphone.
Step 3: Select the Correct Microphone from the Drop-Down Menu
Go to the settings menu and choose the correct microphone from the available options in the drop-down list. Make sure the chosen microphone is operational and correctly set as the default input device.

Speak clearly and at a moderate volume during the test. Check for any background noise that could interfere with speech detection, and ensure you are in a quiet environment.
Additional Tips
Restart Your Device: Restart your laptop to reset any audio settings that may be causing the issue.
Test Your Microphone: Use a built-in audio testing tool or application to confirm your microphone is working properly before attempting the test again.
