Help OK Google audio response quit working

[randyvol]

Just got my first Android phone a few months ago; LG G3. Still learning... stumbled onto a web site of things you could use "OK Google" for. One of the sections was about funny things to do with OK Google. One was 'Make me a sandwich'.

So I tried it... "OK Google" I got the response (pulsing mic) and said "Make me a sandwich"; I got a voice response - 'poof, you're a sandwich'.

When I went to show my wife later that day, all that happens is I get a white bar at the top of the screen that displays 'make me a sandwich'.

Now, no matter what I try, "OK Google" will not respond audibly. This is unique to the OK Google functionality. Voice Command, Personal Assistant, Map Quest and other apps provide audible feedback.

What broke on OK Google? Anyone know?
Thanks in advance for any assist.

Background noise or muffled voice? Sometimes it just doesnt want to work either lol. You can try clicking on the search bar, then the three dots or settings button on your phone. Then settings, voice, "ok google" detection and you can uncheck block offensive words if you want, make sure the first box is checked, the second is optional. Hope this helped
