Error Domain=kAFAssistantErrorDomain Code=209 "(null)"

Question

I am facing an issue with the SFSpeechRecognizer. After few seconds of starting the application I start getting the error

Error Domain=kAFAssistantErrorDomain Code=209 "(null)"" and "Error Domain=kAFAssistantErrorDomain Code=203 "Timeout" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Timeout, NSUnderlyingError=0x170049990 {Error Domain=SiriSpeechErrorDomain Code=100 "(null)"}}

and the application stops recognization.

I am trying to endAudio() and then again start it every 20 seconds as Apple does not allow us to recognize for more than a minute.

Any help regarding this will really be appreciated.

Did you find any solution? We have just hit this on an iOS 11 device. – Rolling

I have the same thing. It only though happens if I have QuickTime mirroring my app at the same time. I have a hunch it might direct the voice input to laptop or something similar... – Saddle

maybe try on the device only as these errors are not consistent on the simulator vs a real device – Grubman

I am getting exactly the same thing: Error 209, 203 and 100 – Sclerite

I am having the same issue with endAudio(). But for continuous transcribing, I have tried to call it every minute, so that I wouldn't have to call endAudio(), and the speech recognition still works fine. – Laliberte

This work for me. Try this when you want to close the recognitiontask:

DispatchQueue.main.async { [unowned self] in
        guard let task = self.recognitionTask else {
            fatalError("Error")
        }
        task.cancel()
        task.finish()
    }
