Failed to run in electron environment.

[chroma9]

When running in a test environment for Electron, spoken runs into an error quickly. Here is the code used.

spoken.listen.on.start( voice => { console.log('Started Listening') } );
spoken.listen.on.end(   voice => { console.log('Ended Listening')   } );
spoken.listen.on.error( voice => { console.log('Error Listening', voice)   } );
spoken.listen.on.partial( ts => console.log(ts) );
spoken.listen()
    .then(     ts => console.log("Partial: " + ts) )
    .catch( error => console.warn(error.message)   )

I then received the following error.

bubbles: false

cancelable: false

currentTarget: SpeechRecognition {grammars: SpeechGrammarList, lang: "en-US", continuous: false, interimResults: true, maxAlternatives: 1, …}

I hope you can get back to me.

error: "network" looks like may be a permissions issue. In electron config/system this may be needed: https://www.electronjs.org/docs/api/system-preferences#systempreferencesgetmediaaccessstatusmediatype-windows-macos
