Docker installation
Environment
Operating Systems Tested: Windows, macOS, iOS, iPadOS
Browsers Tested: Safari, Edge, Google Chrome
Open WebUI Version: v0.4.7
Bug Summary
Persistent "Permission denied when accessing media devices" error across all tested platforms and browsers, even when device permissions are explicitly granted.
Expected Behavior
When microphone permissions are granted in browser/device settings, the application should be able to access media devices.
Actual Behavior
Receiving "Permission denied when accessing media devices" error consistently
Error occurs regardless of:
Operating system (Windows/Mac/iOS/iPadOS)
Browser choice (Safari/Edge/Chrome)
Permission settings (even when explicitly granted)
Error message UX issue: The error notification is not user-friendly and lacks guidance on how to resolve the issue
Steps to Reproduce
Install Open WebUI using Docker
Open the web interface in any browser
Grant microphone permissions in browser/device settings
Attempt to use voice features
Observe consistent permission denied error
Additional Notes
Issue affects all major platforms and browsers consistently
User permissions are correctly set in device/browser settings
Current error message needs improvement for better user guidance
