AC Question

My keyboard has a microphone but every time I try to do a voice text, e-mail, etc. I get a message saying Google Voice Typing cannot be activated in this context. Help! I used this feature on my old phone all the time.
 
Google Voice Typing cannot be activated in this context.
Keep getting the same message. Rebooting resolves it for a day or two and then return. Any help or ideas?

Nexus 6P, running 6.0.1 (March update), Nova Prime, only Swiftkey and Google Keyboard installed (get message using either keyboard).
