OK Google not working on Home screen

[alodar101]

I just noticed this while in rush hour traffic trying to send a message. It works on any other screen, except the home screen. I dont use it that much, but when I tried it didn't work.

I'm sure this is not new. I tried search on this forum...brought up way too many old results...so I'm asking....

am i missing someting?

OK, scratch this. I figured it out. I use the Microsoft Launcher. It presets OK Cortana for the home screen. Strangely enough OK Cortana does not work in apps, only the home screen. With OK Cortana switch thrown, ok google does not work on the home screen...only in apps
