Hello, I’m using a character in Unity and I’m using the push to talk feature to communicate with the character. I noticed an issue where: I press the push to talk button but don’t say anything and then the character responds as if I had said something. This can be exaggerated by spamming the push to talk button. When after doing so the character ends up with a huge paragraph of text by the end. I adjusted the threshold amounts in `MicrophoneInputChecker` but that doesn’t seem to prevent this particular issue.

Does that apply to the push to talk UI element and/or the “t” keybind?
