Voice recognition stops/freezes every 58 seconds in Word Tracking mode

Description

The microphone stops working for an instant every ~58 seconds, even while I'm actively speaking.
After the freeze, the app stops recognizing voice input completely until I manually stop and restart voice recognition.

This happens consistently:

• Every 58 seconds (approximately)
• Even when speaking continuously
• Even with simple words
• Even when the system previously recognized the word correctly

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open Textream
2. Load a script text
3. Start Word Tracking mode (voice-activated scrolling)
4. Begin speaking continuously
5. After ~58 seconds, microphone briefly disconnects and reconnects
6. Voice recognition stops working completely
7. Must manually stop and restart voice recognition to continue

Expected Behavior

Voice recognition should work continuously without interruption while speaking.

Actual Behavior

Voice recognition freezes every ~58 seconds and requires manual restart.

Environment

• macOS: Tahoe 26.5
• Hardware: Apple M1
• RAM: 8GB
• Textream Version: 1.5.2
• Textream Mode: Word Tracking (voice-activated)
• Language: Italian

Notes

• This does NOT happen with other speech recognition applications
• The problem is specific to Textream's voice tracking
• Other macOS speech recognition apps work fine without this 58-second timeout
• This is extremely disruptive when recording video (need to stop every 58 seconds)

Impact

High - makes the app unusable for continuous voice-activated teleprompting during video recording/streaming.
