Yes, voice input worked flawlessly in the previous version/current account a few days ago. I used the microphone icon in the Codex composer to dictate messages directly.
Current behavior:
* The microphone icon is no longer visible in the Codex composer.
* The official shortcut Ctrl + M does not start dictation.
* Instead, Ctrl + M minimizes the Codex app window.
* I already restarted the app after checking/granting microphone permissions.
* Windows microphone access is enabled, including access for desktop apps.
* Already reinstalled Codex app and logout/login back
* My Plus subscription expired a few days ago and I renewed it
* Voice input disappeared after that period.
* I am signed into the same account.
