Examples
You can use the soundend event in an addEventListener method:
var recognition = new webkitSpeechRecognition() || new SpeechRecognition();
recognition.addEventListener('soundend', function(event) {
console.log('Sound has stopped being received');
});
Or use the onsoundend event handler property:
recognition.onsoundend = function(event) {
console.log('Sound has stopped being received');
}
