The local Whisper mode does require internet at least for the first attempt to use it because it does not download the model until then. Try again now that you have and report back please.

As @justinh-rahb mentioned, the bug you describe is the expected behaviour. Feel free to make a PR if you manage to find a way to embed the whisper model to the container image, Thanks!
