Hello KLP77,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Could you please confirm where exactly you're seeing this on your desktop? Does it look to be a microphone symbol in a box?
If so, this may actually be Voice Control. This article can provide more info about that feature: Use Voice Control on your Mac
You can disable that in System Settings > Accessibility > Voice Control.
Hope this helps!
