Use dictation for everything; as my hands are relatively useless due to MS.

Suddenly stopped working. When you hit Command twice, a microphone box is supposed to pop up, and a double "ping" sound is supposed to play. You do the dictation, hit command again, and a single "ping" sounds. Well now when I hit Command twice, I just get the ping that usually happens at the end of dictation, rather than the double ping for the beginning, and no mic box pops up.

Dictation is "on" in Preferences and is set to internal mic, which is working, since I have no problem face timing with out of state relatives (and out of the room offspring).

Any ideas?
