fix(ux): fixed issue with transcribed text not showing after releasing space by devr0306 · Pull Request #26609 · google-gemini/gemini-cli

devr0306 · 2026-05-06T21:02:49Z

Summary

Fixed issue with transcribed text not showing after releasing space for whisper models(not for live Gemini API yet).

Details

Increased Grace Period: Extended the transcription draining grace period to 4000ms for live services and 3000ms for others to ensure captured text is processed before disconnection.
Improved State Management: Refactored the disconnection logic to safely clear the transcription service reference only after the grace period expires, preventing race conditions.
Simplified Event Handling: Streamlined event listeners for transcription and turn completion by removing redundant checks, ensuring only active services process incoming data.

Related Issues

How to Validate

Enter voice mode for the local whisper models and say something. Release the space key while talking and it should output the words you spoke before releasing.

Summary of Changes

Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request addresses a user experience issue where transcribed text was failing to appear after releasing the push-to-talk key. By increasing the grace period for draining transcription services and refining how service references are cleared, the system now reliably captures and displays final segments of speech before disconnecting.

Code Review

This pull request refactors the voice mode disconnection logic by moving the transcription service cleanup into the grace period timeout and simplifying event listener conditions. Feedback indicates that the grace period duration has been hardcoded, which ignores user configuration and deviates from the project's practice of defining defaults within the settings schema.

@devr0306 Thanks for the fix. Looks like this works for the whisper models and NOT for the Gemini-Live API. Maybe change the description to reflect that?
