Hey Google has stopped showing results even though audio works.

There was a recent update to Android on my Galaxy 10 SE. Now when I say hey Google, it does respond and claims that there are search results available, but it shows nothing on screen. However if I long press the middle button on the bottom to manually bring up the Google search, then it works fine.

So, now it magically fixed itself. Maybe clearing the cache and waiting a couple days is what fixed it I don't know.

Twice, for an extended period of time, in the past several days, o.k. google gets me a a beep response, accompanied by a brief "flash" of white superimposed over the home screen bottom control buttons, but no Google interface with the microphone, So I assume were talking about the same thing. Last night it was o.k, but now it's broken again

I also noticed another phenomenon. I have a link in a text message. When I click on it, it gives me a list browsers I want to"Open With" but Google is not in the list, which is quite odd, I believe. I just thought there might be a connection with the "o.k. google" thing.

Or perhaps someone could advise me how to get Google added to that "Open With" list.

This is my default browser settings. No way to add something? I clicked on Chrome, but is there there is no way to "unclick" it, and get back that "open with" option?

It's got the Chrome browser on the list, which is made by Google of course, and integrates some of their other services. That seems to be the obvious Google app for opening web URLs, and I can't think of anything else from Google that does that. And "Samsung Internet" is the phone's own stock browser on Samsung devices.
 
My Samsung 10 SE is doing that again. No visual results from hey Google. I tried to reinstall the Google app but it does the same thing.

It worked once for me this morning, but not now. BTW, you're probably already know this, but opening the Google app and tapping the microphone icon the does the same thing as "Hey Google"
