When dictation times-out, it loses the things I said.

When using dictation, when I talk until it times-out, dictation will lose everything I say. (It will not write anything). However, if I press fn before it times-out, it works fine. This is extremely frustrating.


I can see that it recognizes that I'm talking by the sound level adjustment that I see when I talk.

Mac mini, iOS 6.1.2
