Description
### Bug Description
Problem Description
When using the Web Speech API (SpeechRecognition / webkitSpeechRecognition) with recognition.continuous = true, speech recognition still stops automatically after a short period of silence or inactivity.
This behavior breaks the expected continuous listening functionality, as recognition should remain active until it is explicitly stopped by the application.
Steps to Reproduce
1. Initialize SpeechRecognition
2. Enable continuous mode
3. Start recognition
4. Wait for silence or inactivity
5. Recognition stops automatically
Expected Behavior
Recognition should continue listening until manually stopped.
Actual Behavior
Recognition stops automatically due to silence, timeout, or internal browser reset.
Environment
1. Browser: Chrome / Edge
2. Frontend: TypeScript web application
3. API: Web Speech API
Workaround
Restart recognition manually inside the onend event.
