Using Windows 10 Anniversary Update. Using Duolingo to learn Spanish. During lessons a microphone icon will appear. User is supposed to click it and speak. The program then evaluates what is said. However, in Brave when I click the icon instead of recording me and giving feedback, it immediately gives me an error message and moves on. I was initially prompted whether I wanted to enable the microphone/camera and I responded yes. I double-checked this in Settings. Microphone does not work as it is supposed to on the Duolingo page within Brave.
