Research direction
Start by tracing what happens after a dictation is recorded in history, focusing on the three copy modes named in the issue. Reproduce the intermittent failure on macOS 26.5.1 across apps such as cmux and Chrome. Done means dictation text is reliably inserted into the active app using the supported copy modes.

Description
Describe the bug
When using FluidVoice it will not paste what I said into the app I'm in. This has happens almost every time I use the dictation feature. I tried it in cmux, google chrome, etc. 9/10 dictations don't paste into the app I'm clicked in. Looking at the history tab though it saw my msg and has it recorded there. I've tried changing the copy mode setting multiple times from "Copy to Clipboard" to "Clipboard Paste" and "Clipboard Free Insert". It worked flawlessly when I first updated to v1.6.0 and then randomly it just started acting up. Also tried updating to 1.6.1 and the issue still persists.
To Reproduce
Use dictation in any app, sometimes it just won't paste what was said.
Expected behavior
For what I said to be pasted into the app I was using.
