Important information

What’s new in 2025.3
- WPF text controls: Dictation at the cursor for standard .NET WPF controls and the TX29 control (AllScripts, Altera). See known issues for Server 2022 note.
- Omnissa Horizon support: New clients and Connection Server supported. USB device splitting works as expected on Windows Server 2025.
Key improvements
- Microsoft Word: Line-spacing commands (new line / new paragraph) behave correctly.
- .NET 4.8 compliance: Aligned with Microsoft accessibility requirements.
- Cerner MPages: One-step transfer of DAX Copilot summaries into the correct sections.
- Security & libraries: Updates including Newtonsoft.Json 13.0.1 and CefSharp 134.3.9 (S360 standards).
Solved issues
- Launches directly to sign-in (no pre “blue screen”).
- Resolved PowerMicCtrl.dll errors in Microsoft RDS environments.
- Removed false “low-quality mic” warnings for non-PowerMic devices.
- Stability fixes in Epic Hyperdrive and Oracle Cerner Millennium.
- Linux Nuance Audio Extensions working as expected with DMO 2025.1.
Known issues
Virtualisation & device splitting
- Omnissa Horizon 24.12: USB device splitting for PowerMic button redirection does not work on Windows Server 2016/2019/2022. Works on Server 2025.
- Citrix Workspace app 2503.1 / 2503.2: Automatic device splitting affected for SpeechMike / PowerMic; earlier client versions work as expected.
Dictation & application behaviour
- Chrome/Edge: formatting and undo that / redo that not supported.
- Dictation Box behaviours in certain flows (selection commands after auto-open; anchor/focus delays).
- Anchored Microsoft Word: some edit commands (press space/tab/enter, cut/copy/paste) don’t trigger when focus is elsewhere.
- Clipboard-in-use message may appear when transferring from Dictation Box; retry works.
Install & environment
- MSI deployment requires administrator rights.
- Imprivata may load older CRT DLLs causing sign-in to close; use
SoD.exe -enableredirto createSoD.exe.localand setDevOverrideEnable=1. Disable via-disableredir. - Screen saver not displayed when SpeechMike or PowerMic 4 is in standby recording; can be toggled on each device (press/hold left mouse + touchpad 5 seconds).
- TX29 on Server 2022: protected field not detected; users must place cursor manually at protected field start.
