Description
Describe the bug
Pressing Return opens Dictate; as does right-option
1.6.9 + M5/macOS 26.5.1; bare Return invokes Primary Dictation regardless of configured primary shortcut; quitting FluidVoice restores normal Return behavior; disabling Edit Mode and changing primary shortcut do not correct it.
- Return works normally when FluidVoice is quit.
- Return invokes exactly the same Dictation function as your designated Right Option shortcut.
- Changing the FluidVoice shortcut to Ctrl-Option-D does not release Return.
- Disabling Edit Mode doesn't affect it.
- Accessibility reset/conflict testing doesn't affect it.
That combination strongly suggests FluidVoice has an erroneous/stale key binding in its global event listener that isn't represented in the Settings interface.
Reproduction steps
- Return works normally when FluidVoice is quit.
- Return invokes exactly the same Dictation function as your designated Right Option shortcut.
- Changing the FluidVoice shortcut to Ctrl-Option-D does not release Return.
- Disabling Edit Mode doesn't affect it.
- Accessibility reset/conflict testing doesn't affect it.
That combination strongly suggests FluidVoice has an erroneous/stale key binding in its global event listener that isn't represented in the Settings interface.
