  1. Microphone access to voice commands on HL2


    I am locking down a Hololens 2 with MS Intune. I need to deny access to the microphone for all apps other than my LOB custom app. I use the CSPs LetAppsAccessMicrophone: force deny policy and then whitelist my app using LetAppsAccessMicrophone_ForceAllowTheseApps. That works as expected, however with the side effect that the voice commands stop working due to missing access to the microphone. I guess I need to whitelist the voice commands engine as well, but I cannot identify the process resp. package family name. Any idea how to get the voice commands working again?

    :)

    Cortana not hearing voice commands

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on the Microsoft Communities.

    1. Are you able to hear other sounds from your computer?

    2. Does the microphone work with other apps such as Skype?

    3. Have you tried using "Learn my voice" settings?

    Kindly, follow these steps and check if that helps:

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to try to turn Cortana off and then try turning it on back and check if she talks. Refer to the steps below to turn Off and On Cortana:

    • Open Cortana.
    • Click the hamburger button in the top left of the window.
    • Go to Settings and click on off.
    • Follow the same steps to turn it on.
    • Check if issue persists.
    Method 2:

    I suggest you to run the Recording Audio
    troubleshooter and check if it helps.

    • Type troubleshooting in the search bar.
    • Select Troubleshooting.
    • Select View all on the top left corner.
    • Click on Recording Audio.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions to run the troubleshooter.
    • Check if issue persists.


    Please post back with the results and the information asked, we will be glad to assist you further.
