You upload the audio file in the chat window and when you click on the audio file, a transcript is displayed.

Since v0.6.23 with STT OpenAI and Local the preview shows no content.

Hi !
Did you all test this also in Notes section ?
Even if the model seems retrieve content in chat section, in Notes it didn't work as well.
Did the mentioned commit solve it in notes too ?
@rgaricano commented on GitHub (Aug 28, 2025):
No, In Notes audio files it don't show the content, and also the File Modal doesn't open it as audio, just provide a download link.
The recordings are not transcribed either and open the FileModal as download link.
But the embedd is done and it appear in logs.
@GlisseManTV commented on GitHub (Aug 28, 2025):
From my side (PGSQL DB), In Notes, even if I see the transcription in logs, the model didn't retrieve the content.
So, we can see :
