My Nexus has just started doing this - the voice search does not work in portrait mode, and now only works in landscape mode?? It's very odd.

It used to be fine so I've uninstalled the last 4 or 5 apps I've bought in case there was a conflict with one of them, but to no avail.

I've found the fault documented on Google code here - Issue 34471 - android - Mic works only in landscape position on Google I/O Nexus 7 tablet - Android - An Open Handset Alliance Project - Google Project Hosting - though this mentions the fault being on the Google I/O Nexus 7.

Anyone else have this fault? Wondering if I should be looking at returning the device? :-\
